Book Description
This paper provides assessment of the current state of the implementation of the Basel Core Principles for Effective Banking Supervision in Germany. Since the last Financial Sector Assessment Program (FSAP), German banking supervision has undergone profound changes, with approval of the Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR) and Directive (CRD IV), establishment of the European Banking Authority, and creation of the Single Supervisory Mechanism. The last FSAP (2011) found banking system supervision to be generally sound with some areas in need of improvement—although some of these issues have been addressed, others remain. While supervisory landscape in Germany evolves, it is crucial that supervisors communicate their expectations to banks and develop guidelines and regulations that can be used to substantiate enforceable measures.

Book Description
In this book, the complex topic of crypto securities is presented in a compact, understandable and practical manner. In addition to conveying the fundamentals and technical background of the crypto market, a classification in the various areas of supervisory law is made. The focus is on German law, although reference is also made to the European equivalence standards. In order to succeed in a correct classification into European financial market law, both the Liechtenstein law on tokens and VT service providers and the European proposal for a regulation on markets for crypto assets are discussed in detail and compared with the German supervisory regulations on crypto assets. The aim, in addition to creating a basic understanding of how crypto assets work, is to construct a comprehensive overall picture of their regulatory treatment in Germany and to include possible implications of a European push. The work thus provides guidance to individuals who, for example, wish to invest in cryptocurrencies or start a business related to cryptocurrencies.

Book Description
The design of the German banking supervision framework is structurally sound, with a robust legislative and operational framework that largely complies with the Basel Core Principles for effective banking supervision (BCP). Various improvements to the German supervisory framework have been implemented, acting on multiple recommendations and initiating improvements in supervisory practices on the basis of lessons from the global financial crisis. Further efforts are needed to make fully operational the improvements initiated in light of the lessons from the global financial crisis.

Book Description
Familiarity with guarantees and how they function under various national jurisdictions are essential for principals, guarantors, and beneficiaries of international contracts. This enormously useful handbook provides a practical overview of the guarantee regimes in twenty-eight European countries, with country-by-country contributions from regional expert practitioners and academics. For easy comparison, each country report follows the same structure, from preliminary discussion on the provisions of a guarantee to its negotiation, drafting, and enforcement. Focusing on specific issues to consider at every stage, each chapter provides detailed information and guidance on such aspects as the following: . who can issue guarantees; . limitations as to the type of obligations which may be subject to a guarantee; . issues relating to the protection of the contracting parties; . formal requirements which need to be complied with; . stamp duties or other tax payable; . presence of implied terms; . legal framework applicable to joint and several obligations; . modification of the situation; . conditions for release and actions to be taken to ensure a valid release; . opening of bankruptcy proceedings against the principal; . court enforcement; and . incorporation of uniform rules. Each chapter includes references and model guarantee forms that readers can use to draft their own documents. Invaluable to corporate counsel and law firms with an international practice, this peerless handbook will prove the first order of business in trade negotiations across Europe, among European nations themselves as well as with their global partners.

Book Description
Inhaltsangabe:Abstract: Recently business magazines and newspapers have reported regularely about settled NPL deals. NPL is the abbreviation for a non-performing loan and simply describes a situation in which the debtor stopped complying to the terms agreed upon with the lender. Depending on the specific credit terms, the borrower has to pay interest and to repay the principle at a certain time. If this does not happen at a specific time the lender will demand the debtor to stick to the agreed terms and finally, in the event that the debtor does not change his or her behaviour, terminate the underlying contract. At what specific point in this process the loan should be qualified as a non-performing loan is not standardized. The range of past due periods varies from 30 days, over 90 days, to even 180 days. Neither accounting rules nor supervisory law specify yet under which conditions a financial institution has to classify certain loans as non-performing loans. However, this will change with the enforcement of Basel II, and also thanks to international distressed debt investors which demand for global standards. From time to time financial institutions amass huge stocks of these loans which finally leads to a wave of NPL sales. The market for NPL s evolves and is active for three to five years. After resolving the stock of NPL s it breaks down and stays relatively inactive for a longer time before it might develop again. Beside this time-related feature, a geographic pattern can be detected. The market does not evolve at the same time all around the world, but moves from one country or economic zone to the other. Right now, Germany is the most active market in Europe. The question is why. The sale of NPL s belongs neither for mortgage banks nor for commercial banks to their ordinary business. On the contrary, these banks are selling part of their core business the credit business. Of course defaulting debtors are not the most attractive ones for banks, and therefore who would to question the bank that wants to get rid of them. On the other hand banks dispose of traditional instruments to deal with these customers. The work-out department is usually in charge of collecting receivables and also the transfer of the respective receivables to debt-collecting agencies is a long exercised practice among banks. Are these traditional means no longer able to deal with the indubitable tremendous stock on NPL s in German banks and will the outsourcing [...]

Book Description
This book was translated from German into English by means of artificial intelligence (machine translation). This academic paper deals with both civil (securities) law and regulatory (securities) law aspects. Thus, a summary of the property law is provided, which deals with the classification of tokens under Liechtenstein law. Furthermore, dematerialized securities, which have been known to the Liechtenstein legal system for almost 100 years, will be dis-cussed. The civil and corporate law focus is on Liechtenstein, while the Swiss corporate law and the general civil law of Austrian law are also taken into account. The supervisory part of the work is clearly in the focus of Union law, but also takes into account national specialties of Liechtenstein, Austria and Germany in addition to European legal acts. Thus, tokens and token-based business models are also examined in the light of European legal acts such as MiFIR, MiFID II, CRR, CRD IV, CSDR, EMIR, AIFMD, UCITSD, E-Money Directive II, PSD II, MAD/MAR, Prospectus Regulation, 5th AML Directive and other regulations, directives, as well as implementing regulations and delegated regulations. A special focus is placed on crypto exchanges and decentralized trading places (DEX). In addition, a focus will be placed on consumer law in terms of tokens and distance selling contracts, taking into account the Consumer Rights Directives. In this context, tokens as data or software and thus as digital content and consequently merchandise are also dealt with in more detail and the parallels to tokens as tokens with intrinsic value or virtual currencies in contrast to fiat money are shown. Furthermore, the author aims at explaining deposit business, e-money transactions and financial instruments as communicating vessels in contrast to virtual currencies. Although this is primarily a legal work, technical aspects of Distributed Ledger Technologies, such as the blockchain, smart contracts, agoric computing, self-sovereign identity, etc. - as far as this is necessary for the legal assessment - are also explained in more detail. The present discussion is to be understood as scientific work with practical relevance for advice in connection with blockchain based business models.
