  • Long Europe's financial capital, the UK’s vote to leave the European Union casts doubt over the future of not just the city, but of the country's primacy as a business centre, the state of financial regulation in the country and the fate of Capital Markets Union.
  • The European Commission has laid out its thoughts on how to clean up the diverse bail-in regimes in Europe, since some approaches could lead to a slew of lawsuits if a bank goes into resolution, according to a document obtained by GlobalCapital.
