Fragmentation in International Financial Regulation
Summary
International financial networks appeared as the central response to the intensification of cross-border activities. However, short-comings in their design, the growing fragmentation of markets, and contextual changes – such as the US' hostility towards multilateralism, Brexit, the changing role of emerging economies, and new market segments – point to transformations in financial regulation. As networks are faced with greater constraints, it is fundamental to look at what can domestic regulators do to expand the toolbox for achieving cross-border coordination and cooperation. The research aims to map, analyse, and explain the processes that can be used for that purpose, as well as their impact on the overall governance of international financial regulation.
