Money, Politics and 1992: Britain, France and the Single Financial Market

The book investigates British, French and EU-wide responses to the Single Financial Market initiative. It outlines the contexts of the globalization of financial markets and the pressures towards competitive deregulation. The '1992' package is assessed and its differing impact in Britain and France explained by comparing the different regulatory regimes through detailed case-studies. A policy network approach is applied throughout to European integration in this field.
