Castrén & Snellman Authored a Chapter on Finland in The Banking Regulation Review

Janne Lauha and Hannu Huotilainen contributed a chapter on Finland to The Banking Regulation Review’s sixth edition.

The publication examines banking regulation in nearly 50 countries. The article authored by Castrén & Snellman covers the key characteristics of Finland’s regulatory framework for banking institutions. The year 2014 was significant from a regulatory perspective, because the regulatory framework applicable to banks was dramatically expanded and reshaped.

The topics discussed in the article by Lauha and Huotilainen include, among other things, the new Finnish Act on Credit Institutions, the new prudential requirements for credit institutions and the plans to set up a European banking union with a look at its effects on Finnish banks. The editor of the publication is Jan Putnis and it is published by Law Business Research Ltd.
