AbstractWe investigate the possibility of completing financial markets in a model with no exogenous probability measure, with market imperfections and with an arbitrary sample space. We also consider whether such an extension may be possible in a competitive environment. Our conclusions highlight the economic role of complexity.

Orderly Transition

LIBOR is the London Interbank Offered Rate: a measure of the interest rate at which large banks can borrow from one another on an unsecured basis. LIBOR is often used as a benchmark rate— meaning that the interest rates that consumers and businesses pay on trillions of dollars in loans adjust up and down contractually based on movements in LIBOR. Investors also rely on the difference between LIBOR and various risk-free interest rates as a gauge of stress in the banking system. Benchmarks such as LIBOR therefore play a central role in modern financial markets. Thus, news reports in 2008 revealing widespread manipulation of LIBOR threatened the integrity of this benchmark and lowered trust in financial markets. We begin with a discussion of the economic role of benchmarks in reducing market frictions. We explain how manipulation occurs in practice, and illustrate how benchmark definitions and fixing methods can mitigate manipulation. We then turn to an overall policy approach for reducing the susceptibility of LIBOR to manipulation before focusing on the practical problem of how to make an orderly transition to alternative reference rates without raising undue legal risks.

In capitalism the capital plays superior role. Financial markets and financial corporations have a special and fundamental place in it due to their importance for market economy and economic growth. For a long time the pathologies of capitalism like degradation of environment, increasing gulf between rich and poor, social exclusion and global disequilibrium that capitalism is responsible for were ignored. The explanation was that the market will solve all the problems. Unfortunately, the market isn’t perfect. A good example of market imperfections is the use of excess capital for speculation. Therefore it is necessary to redefine the role of financial corporation so it includes social matters.

Islamic banks are present in the community as financial institutions whose activities are based on the principles of Islamic law for the benefit of the people. This study aims to determine the strategic role of Islamic Banks as financial service institutions, the importance of the existence of Islamic Banks and Islamic-based markets and financial instruments in them.
