What the literature leaves open

  • However, sector-specific guidelines from Poland’s financial intelligence unit (GIIF) are lacking, and the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (KNF) has yet to establish a coordinated approach to AI in AML/CFT. The research hypothesis—which assumed that the current state of legal regulation of AI in AML/CFT systems in Japan and selected EU countries is insufficient—was confirmed.

    Artificial intelligence in financial security: Legal challenges in Japan’s AML/CFT regime and comparative insights from selected EU countries · 2026 · DOI

  • The disproportion in the level of knowledge of products available on the financial market between professionals and their clients and the lack of standardization of detailed rules for examining complaints by financial market entities were the basis for establishing the Office of the Financial Ombudsman.

    Zadania i zasady działania Rzecznika Finansowego w świetle prac parlamentarnych nad Ustawą z dnia 5 sierpnia 2015 roku o rozpatrywaniu reklamacji przez podmioty rynku finansowego i o Rzeczniku Finansowym · 2022 · DOI

  • Building on the anthropology of law and the economization perspective, I bridge this gap by focusing on the processes by which money is economized through security devices, mechanisms that enable the exchange of money by sustaining a credit relationship when connections between lender and borrower are insufficient, inadequate, or altogether absent.

    From collateral to money: social meaning, security devices and the law in the depersonalization of monetary relationships · 2022 · DOI

  • However, the scope and nature of measures available to the KNF in the prevention of economic crime are determined by the institutional position of the KNF, which has not been established as a law enforcement authority or a uniformed or special service but rather an institution engaged in the fi ght against economic crime by providing expertise, supporting other state services specialised in this area.

    Determinants, principles and perspectives of cooperation between the polish fi nancial supervision authority and the police in economic security and prevention of economic crime — a quest for synergies · 2021 · DOI

  • 92 of this Code complicates unreasonably the creditor’s ability to satisfy quickly his claim under bank guarantee, therefore its scope should be limited to the guarantor’s refusal to pay under bank guarantee only in case of a manifestly fraudulent claim.

    Bank Guarantee: Significance and Regulation Issues of the solvet et repete Principle · 2020 · DOI

  • If the determination of their registered office is rigorously established through existing regulations at the national level, the determination of the real office, whose landmarks for regulation are not clearly determined, may attract uncertainty concerning the law applicable to the organic statute of the company and its dismemberment.

  • Based on the literature review, the article points to two underdeveloped themes for future research to investigate: (1) further studies on the interrelation between the legitimacy of monetary organization and national identity, (2) an increased focus on central banks and monetary authorities, as well as the historical development in which monetary organization evolved in concert with ideas of the national identity and nationalism.

    Monetary organization and national identity: a review and considerations · 2015 · DOI

  • This article departs from a gap in the literature with respect to the legitimacy of delegations to a supranational and independent institution like the ECB.

    The EMU’s Legitimacy and the ECB as a Strategic Political Player in the Crisis Context · 2013 · DOI

  • Thus, scenario analysis appears to be appropriate in this setting because regulatory compli- ance costs are largely front-loaded and already observable, while integration benefits depend on future market access and therefore remain uncertain.

    Financial System Integration of Microstates: The Case of San Marino and the EU Association Agreement · 2026 · DOI

  • Romania’s membership in the Bretton Woods multilateral development banks (MDBs) is particularly significant, as Part Two status has become largely obsolete for its profile, offering limited opportunities, while the benefits available exclusively to Part One countries remain underexplored.

    The Option for Graduation: Rethinking Romania’s Role in Bretton Woods Multilateral Development Banks · 2026 · DOI

  • We highlight how the impact of composite indices, such as the administrative burden measurements, can depend on poorly understudied factors that can be external/internal to the issuing organization of an indicator.

    What sustains flawed indicators? Unpacking the EU's administrative burden agenda · 2025 · DOI

  • While institutional theory has extensively examined how durable regulations contribute to institutional change, little is known about how temporary regulations—pervasive in modern societies—can transform institutions.

    Temporary Regulations and Institutional Change: Insights from the Brazilian World Cup Experience · 2025 · DOI

  • Abstract Why are international regulatory standards not set? While most of the literature focuses on explaining positive cases of standard-setting where international rules are agreed upon, weak or negative cases remain prevalent and yet surprisingly under-explored.

    Why are international standards not set? Explaining “weak” cases in shadow banking regulation · 2023 · DOI

  • The differences can be attributed to the various conceptual definitions of the shadow banking system, lack of data, and difficulties of data compilation.

    Measuring shadow banking in Central and Eastern European countries: A new dataset, 2004-2019 · 2022 · DOI

  • The novelty of the topic: the limited research of Lithuanian legal doctrine does not analyse peculiarities of the solvet et repete principle and Lithuanian legal regulation on this question in comparison with international commerce practice and the relevant regulation practice of other countries.

    Bank Guarantee: Significance and Regulation Issues of the solvet et repete Principle · 2020 · DOI

  • Prior to the crisis, Ireland was championing light-touch regulation, advertising itself as an attractive place to do business, in which there was insufficient political support for tough sanctions to address financial wrongdoing.

    ‘Walk softly and carry no stick’: Culture, opportunity and irresponsible risk-taking in the Irish banking sector · 2019 · DOI

  • By refining the earlier findings in Italian local governments with data from a completely different region being Flanders, the results highlight that the IPSASs are lacking an important area of expectations from a relevant user need perspective, being the local ruling politicians.

    Does IPSAS Meet Heritage Assets’ User Needs? · 2018 · DOI

  • The fact that there are few studies on the costs and benefits of joining the Bank Union for the Central and Eastern European countries, explains the different views of the decision makers concerning this issue.

    Alternative Views on the Participation of Non-Euro Zone Countries at the Bank Union · 2017 · DOI

  • I argue that IOs often adopt a posture of strategic ambiguity when confronted with a combination of divisions among major member states and a lack of consensus in the profession that provides the organization's source of expert legitimacy.

    Washington dissensus: ambiguity and conflict at the International Monetary Fund · 2015 · DOI

  • While no consensus has been yet reached regarding the usefulness of these measures, researchers consider that some of them will become part of the usual toolkit used by central banks, which will further intensify their communication activity.

    Trust and Transparency: Perspectives upon the Communication of the National Bank of Romania during the Financial Crisis · 2013 · DOI

  • Assuming, for the sake of this thought experiment, that the mechanism would have been limited to the EAMS to avoid UK opposition.

  • Despite their potential to influence the process of fund disbursement, relatively little is known about the Committees' operation and their impact in the new member states.

    Monitoring Committees in Cohesion Policy: Overseeing the Distribution of Structural Funds in Hungary and Slovakia · 2011 · DOI

  • One limitation is the inherent tension between the requirements of control and the economic justification of fiscal rules, another that economic justifications remain ambiguous and contentious.

    The Contentious Creation of the Regulatory State in Fiscal Surveillance · 2009 · DOI

  • These explanatory tables are, however, necessarily limited by the fact that many Participating Countries still lack many data required for the construction of more detailed accounts.
