Capital markets are a continuous stream of activity and innovation. Constantly evolving and inherently dynamic, they give rise to complex regulatory and policy issues and offer rich material for analysis. Additionally, globalization has incentivized cross-border listings and international flows of capital.

Global Capital Markets takes stock of recent trends and events, and explores their legal and regulatory implications. Global in reach, the book spans several jurisdictions and covers a wide range of current regulatory challenges. The book provides critical analysis of key current issues including investor activism, the challenges of cross-border regulatory enforcement and recent initiatives to empower shareholders as a tool to improve corporate governance.

It pays particular attention to the phenomenon of crowdfunding. It also surveys longer-term trends such as the development of the nascent capital markets law in China over the last two decades, and the issues thrown up by the increased use of dual class voting shares. Case studies draw on examples such as the US, Canada, Europe, China, India and New Zealand.

Timely and incisive, this book will appeal to students and academics in international corporate and securities law.
