The Law and Autonomous Vehicles

The Law and Autonomous Vehicles

When will we see autonomous vehicles on our roads? The answer is that to some degree they are already here. Numerous organisations are testing fully autonomous prototypes on public roads in the UK and even commercially available vehicles already have several ‘quasi-autonomous’ features. KPMG has forecasted that the connected and autonomous vehicles market could be worth as much as £51 billion to the British economy by 2030 and could create some 30 000 new jobs over the same period. Accordingly the UK and a number of other jurisdictions are already implementing legal reforms with a view to smoothing the path for this technology. Notably Parliament has passed the Automated and Electric Vehicles Act 2018 dealing with the insurance of such vehicles and changes are currently being made to the Road Vehicle (Construction and Use) Regulations 1986 and to the Highway Code to accommodate highly automated technologies. The government has also issued non-statutory guidance in relation to testing on public roads and in relation to vehicle cybersecurity. Against this rapidly changing landscape this book analyses the key legal issues facing autonomous vehicles including testing on public roads insurance product liability and cyber security and data protection. It also examines the approach being taken in other jurisdictions including Austria Germany Greece Italy the USA and South Africa. | The Law and Autonomous Vehicles

Bank Regulation Risk Management and Compliance Theory Practice and Key Problem Areas

Bank Regulation Risk Management and Compliance Theory Practice and Key Problem Areas

Bank Regulation Risk Management and Compliance is a concise yet comprehensive treatment of the primary areas of US banking regulation – micro-prudential macroprudential financial consumer protection and AML/CFT regulation – and their associated risk management and compliance systems. The book’s focus is the US but its prolific use of standards published by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and frequent comparisons with UK and EU versions of US regulation offer a broad perspective on global bank regulation and expectations for internal governance. The book establishes a conceptual framework that helps readers to understand bank regulators’ expectations for the risk management and compliance functions. Informed by the author’s experience at a major credit rating agency in helping to design and implement a ratings compliance system it explains how the banking business model through credit extension and credit intermediation creates the principal risks that regulation is designed to mitigate: credit interest rate market and operational risk and more broadly systemic risk. The book covers in a single volume the four areas of bank regulation and supervision and the associated regulatory expectations and firms’ governance systems. Readers desiring to study the subject in a unified manner have needed to separately consult specialized treatments of their areas of interest resulting in a fragmented grasp of the subject matter. Banking regulation has a cohesive unity due in large part to national authorities’ agreement to follow global standards and to the homogenizing effects of the integrated global financial markets. The book is designed for legal risk and compliance banking professionals; students in law business and other finance-related graduate programs; and finance professionals generally who want a reference book on bank regulation risk management and compliance. It can serve both as a primer for entry-level finance professionals and as a reference guide for seasoned risk and compliance officials senior management and regulators and other policymakers. Although the book’s focus is bank regulation its coverage of corporate governance risk management compliance and management of conflicts of interest in financial institutions has broad application in other financial services sectors.

Foreign Currency Claims Judgments and Damages

Foreign Currency Claims Judgments and Damages

Currency fluctuation currency wars and even potential currency collapse (the Euro the Bitcoin) are all risks that commercial parties must consider and guard against. This book gathers together in one volume all the information and advice practitioners are likely to need when advising on advancing or defending claims involving a foreign currency element. The determination of the proper currency (or currencies) of a claim often has a dramatic effect on the level of a court judgment or arbitration award that is ultimately obtained. It is therefore vital for practitioners to accurately assess claims which involve a foreign currency element. The authors guide the reader through the legal principles governing how foreign currency claims are treated in English law. The book covers both the treatment of foreign currency in substantive law as well as such procedural matters as how to claim interest correctly on a foreign currency claim and how to plead prove or disprove the applicability of a particular currency. This book is an invaluable and essential resource for all lawyers involved in international commerce but will be of particular interest to those engaged in international finance commodity transactions international shipping and transport and the insurance of assets and liabilities abroad. Those who practise in this country need guidance in navigating the tricky waters that The Despina R unleashed. This excellent book provides that guidance. The authors have been uniquely well placed to meet the challenge of analysing what is a perplexing body of jurisprudence and to suggest principled answers to currency issues that have not yet been the subject of judicial decision. They consider not merely claims in contract and tort but every type of claim that might raise an issue in relation to a foreign currency. The Rt Hon.

Knock-for-Knock Indemnities and the Law Contractual Limitation and Delictual Liability

Knock-for-Knock Indemnities and the Law Contractual Limitation and Delictual Liability

This book examines contractual limitation principles and practice through the use of knock-for-knock indemnity clauses. In using such clauses the parties agree that for certain forms of potential liability – typically property damage personal injury to employees and sometimes other heads of claim such as consequential loss – any loss arising will be absorbed by the party who suffers it: you look after your losses I’ll look after mine. It is an apparently simple pragmatic and neat solution to the question of who bears liability: a risk allocation model so straightforward that it was described by one experienced English judge Honorable Mr. Justice Morison as crude. A specialist contributor team of international experts examine the origin application and effect of these clauses in important jurisdictions their impact in different industries such as oil & gas shipping construction and insurance through the lenses of both economic and legal analyses. The book is of use for lawyers economists and businesspeople who draft negotiates or manage contracts in all industries where liability is dealt with in this way. It is also of interest to students academics and policy makers. | Knock-for-Knock Indemnities and the Law Contractual Limitation and Delictual Liability
