Creditworthiness and 'Responsible Credit'
Martinus Nijhoff (Verlag)
978-90-04-52290-9 (ISBN)
Responsible credit is a policy much discussed by legislators and stakeholders, especially in the aftermath of the global financial crisis of 2007-2008. Creditworthiness and “Responsible Credit” questions how this policy currently finds implementation in EU and US law and the principal instruments used for this scope, including the duty of creditworthiness assessment of borrowers. Noah Vardi analyzes the fundamental and often overlooked notion of “creditworthiness” from a comparative perspective and examines the critical interaction between policies of access to credit, financial inclusion, and responsible lending.
Noah Vardi, Ph.D. (2005), University of Verona, is Associate Professor of Comparative Law at the Roma Tre University. Her research focuses on European private law, financial markets, banking and payment systems, and the law of money and cryptocurrencies. Her publications include the monograph The Integration of European Financial Markets: The Regulation of Monetary Obligations (Routledge, 2010).
