Neate and Godfrey: Bank Confidentiality

This new, fully revised, fifth edition provides a clear picture of the UK laws relating to bank confidentiality. Each chapter sets out the basic rules of confidentiality - the nature, extent, and source of those rules - and examines their civil and criminal nature, the remedies available for breach of those obligations, and the extent to which conflicts of interest arise and how data protection legislation operates in relevant UK jurisdictions. Each contributor then analyzes these issues in the light of statutory and non-statutory frameworks of UK civil and criminal law in their jurisdiction.
