The purpose of this paper is to provide banking regulators with another tool to crosscheck the appropriateness and consistency of levels of capital adequacy for banks. The process begins by examining banking systems and focuses on market risks and the systemic risks associated with growing global economic integration and associated systemic interdependence. The model provides benchmarks for economic and regulatory capital for international banking systems using country, regional and global stock‐market generated price index returns data. The benchmarks can then be translated to crosschecking capital levels for banks within those systems. For analytical purposes systems are assumed to possess a degree of informational efficiency and credit, liquidity and operational risks are held constant or at least assumed to be covered in loan loss provisions. An empirical study is included that demonstrates how market risk and systemic risk can be accounted for in a benchmark banking system performance model. Full testing of the model is left for future research. The paper merely proposes that such an approach is feasible and useful and it is in no way intended to be a replacement for the current Basel Accord.

This chapter starts by giving an overview of the topic of money had, and money received. The common law action for money had and received requires the claimant to establish that, firstly, he originally had legal title to the money; secondly, the defendant received it and; thirdly, such receipt was unjust due to a vitiating factor. It is a claim based upon the unjust enrichment of the defendant at the claimant’s expense. The claim is one of strict liability and hence does not depend upon the fault of the defendant recipient. Actions for money had and received at Common Law are founded on the principles of following and Common Law tracing, which require the property itself to be capable of being followed or traced. However, once money is transferred through the banking system, particularly the international banking system, it very often becomes impossible to identify the particular funds which were originally received.

This chapter proposes some parameters for constructive thought regarding institutions of a more just and sustainable world order. Currently, an institutional system involving a global constitutionalizing of private corporations’ rights utilizes the power of nation-states to serve interests at odds with those states as protectors of peoples. A global elite can use legitimately constituted states to extract benefits from their domestic law enforcement capabilities while escaping any burdens of support for those states. Accordingly, the path towards a globally just and morally cosmopolitan normative order, with finance as a properly public good, might conceivably lead through initial strengthening of some powers of sovereign states rather than their further dissolution. Certainly, such constitutional questions as that of the appropriate relationship between a central bank and the political government of a state need to be carefully examined, especially in view of how politically unaccountable is the international banking system.
