If one examines the history of financial crises whether in the late 90s in Asia or the global financial crisis of 07-08 you might wonder what role - if any - government agencies or intergovernmental agencies can play in alleviating the possibilities of economic crash. In this episode, Professor Floris de Witte engages with the rich work of Professor Niamh Moloney to examine how capital market regulation works in the European Union. Can we regulate our way out of financial crisis? Professor Moloney shares some skepticism and offers critical insight into how capital market regulation can look like in the European Union.
