Description
Book SynopsisThis timely book provides a detailed analysis of the regulatory landscape of energy derivatives trading in the EU. Liebrich Hiemstra argues that current supervision of the sector is too opaque and identifies how more effective legal remedies can be created to safeguard important legal values.
Trade Review‘This book provides a very valuable contribution to the literature on good governance relating to the supervision of derivatives trading in the energy sector. The relevant European principles and rules are carefully discussed and analysed within the very complicated multilateral and multi stakeholder context of this field of EU regulation. The book provides clear recommendations and suggestions for enhancing the regulation and supervision of energy derivatives trading and the enforcement activities of ACER and the cooperation with the national authorities. The book is invaluable for those who are working in practice and in academia on the financial aspects of the energy market.’ -- Saskia Lavrijssen, Tilburg University, the Netherlands
