Abstract

The aim of this chapter is to thoroughly examine the key aspects of the international financial architecture and of public international financial law, which exerts a significant influence on the shaping of European (EU) financial—including banking—law. It first defines this branch of public international economic law and its own branches, and presents its evolution in three periods, from the abolition of the Bretton Woods system in 1971, to the key subsequent international financial crises (namely the Asian crisis [1997–1998] and Global Financial Crisis [2007–2009]) and the current pandemic crisis. Then, it systematically elaborates on the four levels of the making and enforcement of public international financial law, on the role of international financial institutions and fora therein, as well as on its key sources (including, but not confined to, the “Basel III regulatory framework”) that are encompassed in international financial standards, which constitute ‘soft law’ instruments.
