New Models of Financing and Financial Reporting for European SMEs
This book looks at the 23 million registered Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) that make up 98 per cent of the EU economy. Addressing the high end of SMEs in terms of new models for SME funding and financial reporting, this merged way of looking at SMEs reveals a ‘myopic’ thinking in terms of net present value and (future) cash flows generating short-termism and low risk appetite for business. This is not an accounting issue, but rather a preference toward certain financial tools. A segment of SMEs, the ones that seek new ways of funding possibilities, as well as modern technologies (MTFs listing, blockchain, ICOs, etc.) do require, even without knowing, IFRS for SMEs. This book reveal...

Dezentrale Handelsplattformen im Schweizer Finanzmarktrecht
Gegenstand der Dissertation ist eine umfassende rechtstatsächliche und finanzmarktrechtliche Einordnung des Phänomens der dezentralen Handelsplattformen (Decentralized Exchanges, DEX). Der Autor behandelt die Frage, ob dezentrale Handelsplattformen unter Berücksichtigung der mit ihnen verbundenen Innovationschancen und der von ihnen ausgehenden Risiken einen Regulierungsanlass darstellen und wie darauf reagiert werden kann. Die Arbeit zeigt die praktischen Einordnungsprobleme auf, mit welchen das heutige Finanzmarktrecht konfrontiert ist. Um für diese Probleme mögliche Antworten zu entwickeln, erarbeitet der Autor auf der Grundlage eines Rechtsprinzips der Dezentralität Kriterien, welche die Abgrenzung dezentraler Handelsplattformen von Erscheinungsformen erlauben, die über keine ausreichende Verteilung der Kontroll- und Machtstrukturen verfügen (Dezentralitätstest). Der Autor kommt zum Schluss, dass für dezentrale Phänomene in erster Linie Regulierungsansätze überzeugend sind, die ihre Grundlage in einer selbstverantwortlich und wettbewerblich organisierten Finanzmarktordnung haben.
Fraud
A comprehensive history of fraud in America, from the early nineteenth century to the subprime mortgage crisis In America, fraud has always been a key feature of business, and the national worship of entrepreneurial freedom complicates the task of distinguishing salesmanship from deceit. In this sweeping narrative, Edward Balleisen traces the history of fraud in America—and the evolving efforts to combat it—from the age of P. T. Barnum through the eras of Charles Ponzi and Bernie Madoff. This unprecedented account describes the slow, piecemeal construction of modern institutions to protect consumers and investors—from the Gilded Age through the New Deal and the Great Society. It concludes with the more recent era of deregulation, which has brought with it a spate of costly frauds, including corporate accounting scandals and the mortgage-marketing debacle. By tracing how Americans have struggled to foster a vibrant economy without encouraging a corrosive level of cheating, Fraud reminds us that American capitalism rests on an uneasy foundation of social trust.
