A Practitioner's Guide to the FSA Regulation of Investment Banking

The investment banking industry is increasingly broad-based and covers many corporate finance activities such as debt and equity financings, leveraged buy-outs and mergers and acquisitions. With the Financial Services Authority's regime now underway, it remains essential that practitioners and others continue to have a proper understanding of the regulation and legislation underpinning the implementation of these activities - as well as an awareness of the regulation defining categories of customer, financial promotion, market abuse, misleading statements and practices. This book is written by a team of experts covering the range of corporate finance and advisory activities.
