Banking law continues to be a technical but interesting area of law.  With recent events, it is also becoming more regulated with legislation being enacted to allow the Government to acquire a shareholding and further legislation being proposed to regulate the banking industry.  It is therefore more important than ever to have a comprehensive guide to banking law: Butterworths Banking Law Handbook provides exactly this.

Written by two experienced banking barristers, Butterworths Banking Law Handbook is separated into four parts: statutes, statutory instruments, other materials and European legislation.  Separating the material in this way and using a coloured edge to the text to show the separate parts means that the relevant material can be quickly found.  Like other handbooks, navigation is also helped by each distinct provision being allocated a unique paragraph number which is cross-referenced to the contents and index.

Butterworths Banking Law Handbook has been fully updated to include the latest legislative developments including the Banking (Special Provisions) Act 2008 and the Banking Code 2008.  Handbooks like these sometimes have problems when material has not be expertly selected.  Fortunately, the editors' experience in banking law means that Butterworths Banking Law Handbook does not suffer from this issue.

Anyone looking for a comprehensive collection of banking law statutes, statutory instruments, other materials and European materials should look no further than Butterworths Banking Law Handbook.  The material is expertly selected meaning it is both an indispensible and authoritative guide to the provisions that most banking lawyers will consider in their working lives.
