Published in conjunction with the International Bar Association, the second edition of Bank Confidentiality deals with papers presented in May 1997 at the IBA's Annual International Financial and Banking Law Seminar of the Section on Business Law.Greatly expanded, it now includes, in addition to papers from all countries of the European Union, papers from three countries on the eastern edge of the European Union, as well as a paper from Singapore (which also deals with the situation in Malaysia) to make it an important and detailed reference source in this area.Edited by a high-profile City practitioner, it emphasises trends mentioned in the first edition which are now clearly established, such as the erosion of banking secrecy in the light of the introduction of money laundering legislation.This unique comparative study presents a lively discussion of the issues involved which results in an easily digestible survey of this complex subject.
