The Fourth Edition of The Law of Banking and Financial Institutions brings exciting renovations to a classic casebook. Comprehensive updating is just the beginning. The authors have expanded the old structure to include more coverage of non-bank financial institutions, such as insurance companies and mutual funds. Other topics have been reorganized to reflect modern trends. Visual aids--virtual windows, for visual learners--have been added to clarify concepts and reinforce text. And finally, engaging problem exercises have been added to create a more dynamic learning environment.
