With regard to private law regulation, the course will focus on the following topics: - Constitutional protection of savings. - Regulatory principles of the financial market. - Transparency in financial intermediation. - Regulatory segmentation by customer segment. - Adequacy, appropriateness and execution-only regimes. - Contractual rules in financial intermediation. - Private remedies in the event of a breach of the rules of conduct.
