Europe's Financial Perspectives in Perspective. ENEPRI Working Paper, No. 46, 24 April 2006

The budget of the European Union raises much commotion. Many member states anxiously guard their net payment positions: don't they pay too much for the EU compared to what they receive from the EU? Yet, from an economic perspective the subsidiarity principle is much more important: Should the funds be allocated by the Union or by the individual member states? From that angle, a number of fundamental reforms of European agricultural policy and structural actions (support to lagging regions) suggest themselves. These reform options may roughly halve the EU budget. In addition they happen to bring the net payment positions of member states closer together.

Innovating Financial Law in the Early Modern Netherlands and Europe: Transfers of Commercial Paper and Recourse Liability in Legislation and Ius Commune (Sixteenth to Eighteenth Centuries), European Review of Private Law 19 (2011), 505-518.

In this contribution it is demonstrated how in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries Dutch rules concerning negotiable credit instruments (i.e. bills obligatory to bearer and bills of exchange) transformed financial law throughout the European continent. The Antwerp and Amsterdam authorities devised precepts of law on such issues that went against substantial principles of the academic ius commune. In the course of the seventeenth century, the former's success brought about their insertion into financial legislation of German cities. This phenomenon came along with a new comparative approach of legislators in the whole of Europe, which was typical of that period. During the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, the continental ius commune system was indeed increasingly reoriented towards adoption of legal solutions existing alongside the traditional university-based literature. These developments facilitated the introduction of the Dutch norms of law into legal treatises and codifications, to the disadvantage of older theories of civil law. As a result, by 1800, Dutch rules relating to the assignment of commercial paper and recourse liability of assignors had become firmly established. Even today, they form a part of the private law of many continental-European countries. However, the implementation of these modern ideas has never been complete. As a result, some existing and inconvenient differences between arrangements of transfers of debts and claims could be harmonised in the spirit of the work of the early modern Dutch jurists.

The European System of Banking Law. A Tribute to Stefan Grundmann

in European Business Law Review, 2023, pp. 1017-103718-

Despite its apparent fragmentation, the Union's private law must be seen as a coherent legal system, which is constitutionally based on a mutual interplay between private liberties and market regulation and designed to achieve economic (and social) integration between the Member States. As banking law illustrates, fundamental principles and public policies tend to flow into individual rights and duties, particularly with regard to consumer protection. Since the Union's private law has to coexist with those of the Member States, it must draw on the best instances of national cultures, which, conversely, have to traverse a process of Europeanisation. Stefan Grundmann urged scholars to equip European private law with an apparatus of legal methodology capable of ensuring its coherent interpretation and supplementation and of vouching for its unity.
