Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Ziel dieser Lehrveranstaltung ist es, die Studierenden mit den rechtlichen und wirtschaftlichen Problemen des österreichischen und europäischen Bank- und Kapitalmarktrechts und deren Auswirkungen auf die Stabilität der globalen Finanzmärkte vertraut zu machen.

Bank- und Kapitalmarktrecht verstehen kann nur, wer die ökonomischen Hintergründe kennt. Auf diesen aufbauend soll die Lehrveranstaltung den Studierenden die Struktur und die grundlegenden Ziele des Bank- und Kapitalmarktrechts vermitteln. Dabei sollen praktische Anwendungsfälle und aktuelle Entwicklungen nicht zu kurz kommen. Fragen, die behandelt werden, sind zB

- Wie funktionieren alternative Zahlungsdienstleister wie zB PayPal?
- Welche Rolle spielen Kryptowerte am Finanzmarkt?
- Was sind Derivate?
- Welche Funktionen erfüllen CoCo-Bonds?
- Welche Ansprüche haben Anleger am Kapitalmarkt? Haftet die Finanzaufsicht für Fehler?

Assessment and permitted materials

Students will be assessed on the basis of a written exam and on the basis of their participation during the class, weighted 70% for the written exam and 30% for oral participation. In the written exam, unmodified legal texts will be permitted.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

The successful candidate must be able to find the appropriate provision of a certain legal system that best corresponds to a certain factual situation. They must also be able to compare and contrast legal provisions of different legal systems. Only topics discussed in the class will be examined.

Assessment standard:
The grades will be based on the comprehensiveness, soundness and accuracy of the student’s answers. The quality of the English language will not affect the grade except where a lack of language skills leads to incomprehensible answers.

Examination topics

Only topics discussed in the class will be examined.
