Abstract

Regarding the onerous legislation and the responses from market participants the seminal question that arises is whether these efforts are going to help prevent another financial crisis or not? Is this regulation finally able to puzzle out the too-big-to-fail conundrum Issues and or is it more likely to jeopardize the stability since the funding is ultimately done by the debt? What is the main purpose of the regulation in the first place and does this end justify the means that are being used by the regulators? The article is trying to compare both, the common and the civil law approaches dealing with the crisis management legislation.
