About the new volume
The edited volume on International banking in the new era: Post-crisis challenges and opportunities will publish original papers that examine various issues concerning challenges and opportunities for international banks in the rapidly changing global environment. The deregulation of developed countries’ financial markets over the past two decades has seen an evolution of the roles performed by banks. This reshaping of the traditional boundaries of commercial and investment banking activities has served to blur the distinction between domestic and international banking activities and to some extent contributed to the current international financial crisis. In addition, the developments of banking systems in emerging markets have added to the opportunities and challenges faced by multinational banks. The current financial crisis has only served to accelerate this process of change as the roles of banks are once again being redefined with the possibility of a return to a more controlled environment.
We encourage submission of manuscripts which address issues that are relevant to international banking in this new and rapidly changing environment.
All types of original papers – theoretical, empirical, or policy-oriented – will be considered. Within this framework, possible topics to address include, but are not limited to:
- Global trends in commercial and investment banking
- International banking crises – causes and effects
- Determinants of international banking flows
- Determinants of foreign banking locations
- Cross border mergers and acquisitions in banking
- The role of banks in international money laundering
- International banking and finance centers
- Impacts of Basle II on international banking
- New challenges for post-crisis international banking regulations
- The role of central banks in the new international financial market architecture
- Securitization and innovated financial products and implications for regulation
- Risk management of financial institutions in national and global context
- The role of international banks in economic development
- Emerging market banking sector developments
- The role of Islamic banking in international finance
