Abstract

As is usually the case with IMF-organized conferences, the quality of the papers is such that for discussants only the humble task remains to find some spare remains of “uncharted territory” left by the author. The paper that the organizers invited me to comment upon is no exception to this rule. It gives a comprehensive overview of the relevant issues in modern financial regulation, thereby nicely bridging theory and practice.
