Alphen aan den Rijn, The Netherlands : Wolters Kluwer, 2016.

xxiv, 300 pages ; 25 cm.

International banking and finance law series ; v. 30.

'Banking Regulation in Israel: Prudential Regulation versus Consumer Protection', unique in its kind, provides broad and comprehensive information about the Israeli Banking System and its regulation. Among the globally competitive countries that withstood the global financial crisis of 2008 with no significant disruption, Israel stands out, suggesting that other countries might benefit from an in-depth analysis of its banking system. Thus, the conservative characteristics of the Israeli Banking System subject to tight and effective regulation have now become a broad global interest. In light of this growing interest, this book serves as an exclusive source of information of Israeli banking law and regulation, and focuses on the most up-to-date global banking regulation issues, as reflected and implemented in Israel. Even though the book focuses on the Israeli system, the Israeli circumstances only serve as a test case for the analysis of broader issues that affect many other countries.
