Financial Institutions and Financial Regulation - New Developments in the European Union and Ukraine

Institutional change is omnipresent, with financial systems being no exception. At the same time, financial institutions and their regulators in developed and transition countries are facing different challenges, in particular with respect to their current or target EU membership. This compilation on financial institutions and financial regulation is based on papers presented at two conferences on financial institutions, which were particularly dedicated to the institutional change of the financial system of Ukraine, analyzing it against the backdrop of the enhancement of regulatory regimes driven by the European Union.
