Description: | Select Guide Rating The only all-encompassing guide to the law relating to international finance, this book is based on the author's university courses, referencing nearly all of the world's 320 jurisdictions - the first time the topic has been dealt with on such a worldwide comparative basis. Covering the three principal approaches - the policies of the law, the legal rules and the practical transactions - the book ensures students are presented with doctrine, data and deals, each of which throws light on the other.

Trusts in financial transactions. Set-off and netting. Payment and securities clearing systems. Security interests and title finance.
