Abstract

In Chapter 5 it was argued that deregulation has been one reason why the financial sector has a super size and an undeserved status. In Chapter 8 it was suggested that effective and appropriate regulation is needed as part of the solution to the TBTF problem. While some regulatory measures were discussed briefly in Chapter 8, this chapter is devoted to the argument that international banking regulation, represented by the Basel accords, is neither appropriate nor effective. In evaluating the Basel accords, alternative regulatory measures are suggested in a general form.
