The types and nature of the commercial activities and transactions conducted by financial institutions continue to expand, and so does the regulatory compliance burden.

The Law and Regulation of Financial Institutions provides a practical review and analysis of all the major laws and regulations governing commercial banking compliance and commercial transactions in three information-packed volumes. It covers the basic principles of how banks, savings associations, and related institutions are regulated, what laws control and limit the activities of such institutions, and what legal rights and duties apply to commercial transactions involving checks, credit cards, electronic transfers, secured financing, letters of credit, consumer credit, and bankruptcy. It is an excellent research tool, offering detailed descriptions of key judicial decisions, statutes, legislative history, and regulations. Extensive references to law reviews, professional journals, and other secondary sources are included.
