Book SynopsisAdvocating for more standardised data governance practices and promoting the digital economy,
Data Governance in AI, FinTech and LegalTech investigates the rationale, legal base and tools of data governance in the financial sector. This timely book makes a significant contribution to the debate around how rapidly-evolving digital finance practices should be regulated.
Contributions from leading researchers examine a range of financial services, offering a comprehensive assessment of the available tools for constructing multi-layered matrix systems for data governance in the financial services sector. Chapters explore data governance in the cryptocurrency market, crypto-asset providers, legal services for mergers and acquisitions, consumer insurance, consumer finance, digital platform services, securities exchanges and the green bond market. The book serves to define the legal contours of data governance, taking account of the influence of shifting business models, the views of multiple stakeholders and emerging issues surrounding data protection, privacy and cybersecurity.
This is a crucial read for scholars of law and finance who are researching data regulation, data governance and financial market law. Exploring both the opportunities and risks arising from the digital transformation of financial markets, it will also be invaluable for practitioners and policy makers working in the financial sector, law, risk management and compliance.
Trade Review‘This original and timely book brings together leading legal scholars to examine the regulatory challenges created by the shift to data-driven, next-generation financial products and services. The concept of “data governance” is usefully developed to focus the discussion and emphasize the complex issues and diverse interests that need to be managed in navigating this important and fast-moving space.’ -- Mark Fenwick, Kyushu University, Japan
