Research
Research Interests
Elizabeth’s main research interest is to explore UK and EU financial markets regulation. There are three key strands to her work at present: i) Brexit and the evolving UK/EU financial governance relationship ii) the design and development of financial markets regulators in the UK and EU (namely the Financial Conduct Authority, and the European Securities and Markets Authority); and iii) the relationship between law and markets, specifically the current decline in the UK equity markets. Her current monograph (OUP) project explores the reframing of the UK’s international financial relationships in the shadow of Brexit.
