Abstract

'To the Brink of Destruction' exposes how America's rating agencies helped generate the global financial crisis of 2007 and beyond, surviving and thriving in the aftermath. Despite widespread scrutiny, rating agencies continued to operate on the same business model and wield extraordinary power, exerting extensive influence over public policy. Timothy J. Sinclair brings the shadowy corners of this story to life by examining congressional testimony, showing how the wheels of accountability turned - and ultimately failed - during the crisis. He asks how and why the agencies risked their lucrative franchise by aligning so closely with a process of financial innovation that came undone during the crisis.

Abstract

Taking position from the recent 2007-2009 financial crisis, Credit Ratings and Market Over-reliance: An International Legal Analysis by Francesco De Pascalis provides an in depth legal and regulatory analysis of the concept of over-reliance in the use of ratings and how regulation facilitates over-reliance is different from mere reliance on credit ratings. Not only does the book provide an incisive doctrinal analysis of the concept of over-reliance, it also considers over-reliance from a comparative and international perspective by reviewing legal and regulatory developments under European Union and US law and how over-reliance has been addressed in international financial regulation.

Abstract

This book details the difference between the two rating industries, but this difference is converging all the time. The concept of investing in a more responsible and sustainable manner is drawing in some of the world’s leading investors and, with it, regulations and policies are developing at the highest levels. However, the market is not getting what it needs to fully submit to the concept of responsible investing. It has called for more to be done from those tasked with injecting information into their processes, and two industries in particular have been identified as being natural partners. It has been suggested that they are on a collision course to serve the mainstream investor, and in this book, that collision course is contextualised, explained, presented, and finally its outcome predicted. Daniel Cash is Lecturer at Aston University. He has published exclusively on the credit rating sector and has authored a number of books, edited collections, and articles on the subject.

Créées au début du siècle dernier pour informer les investisseurs sur la santééconomique des entreprises de chemin de fer, les agences de notation financièredéfrayent la chronique. Mises en cause en 2008 pour leurs notations des produitsstructurés responsables de la « crise des subprimes », elles sont aujourd'hui critiquéesen tous sens pour leur rôle dans la crise de la dette souveraine. Hier encore structuresmystérieuses du monde de l'expertise, les agences de notation financières sontdésormais au coeur des débats d'une opinion publique inquiète : - Quelles méthodes de notation financière mettent-elles en oeuvre et que faut-il enpenser ? - Comment ont-elles été propulsées au rang de régulateur mondial du crédit ? - Quelles sont les règles juridiques qui encadrent ou devraient encadrer leurs actions ? - Ne sont-elles pas en train de faire main basse sur des enjeux politiques à l'égarddesquels elles ne jouissent d'aucune légitimité ? - Ne sont-elles pas également un symptôme d'une évolution plus fondamentale de lagouvernance globale ? Autant de questions que se posent tant les spécialistes de ces matières que les citoyenset auxquelles le présent ouvrage entend apporter des éléments de réponse au carrefourde la science économique, de la science juridique et de la philosophie du droit.
