We would like to thank the staff at Taylor & Francis for their support and for enabling us to appoint Jonathon Watson as Managing Editor. His understanding of the topic combined with his editing experience are already making our task manageable and allowing us to enjoy the editing of excellent contributions. This journal already has a strong reputation for publishing insightful contri- butions in a developing legal and regulatory area. We hope to build on this base. We take a broad definition of the field including financial services, banking and capital markets, as well as corporate finance. We are interested in all segments of finance, such as business, retail and development finance. We are open tojur- isdiction-based material or comparative, regional (e.g. EU) or international approaches. The main guide for us is the quality of the pieces, which should con- tribute to in depth understanding of this area of law. To allow even deeper reflection we want to signal that we are open to longer pieces (up to 12,000 words or in some cases even longer). We also see an important role for short articles, regulatory updates, as well as professional briefs. The area of financial law has been at the forefront of academic scholarship over the past fifteen years, particularly in the period before and after the global financial crisis of 2008 (GFC). While the GFC represented a tipping point, both historically and in the understanding of questions of financial law and regulation, the past two years have also seen cataclysmic shifts caused first by Brexit in January 2020 and then by the coronavirus pandemic in March of the same year. Brexit has posed intractable questions about the regulatory environment and structure of financial markets, and it may already signify a rebalancing of regulatory trends, from the global to the national. This may be a marked difference from the post-GFC efforts, which empha- sised attempt towards international co-ordination (e.g. Basel Ill, EU Banking Union, EU Capital Markets Union). The pandemic on the other hand, together with environmental concerns, has highlighted the rising importance of the role of the state in finance. These emergencies are inevitably redefining the relationship between public finance and private finance, and their interplay to meet broader social needs.
