论商业银行对营业场所客户的安全保障义务

商业银行经营者在营业场所内对客户的人身财产权益负有合理限度内的安全保障义务.该义务属于法定义务范畴,主要包括硬件和软件两大方面.商业银行履行安全保障义务应限定在"合理限度"之内,空间上只限于商业银行的"营业场所",时间上应限定在"全部营业时间"内,保护对象应该界定在与商业银行有较密切关系的"客户、潜在客户、其他进入营业场所的相关自然人"范围内.基于平衡社会利益的需要,商业银行违反安全保障义务应承担过错侵权责任,包括直接责任和补充责任两种形态.在第三人直接侵权、商业银行承担补充责任的情形中,应适用过错推定规则.

Food safety and product liability

This paper focuses on the U.S. product liability system for food poisoning cases and makes six key points. First, current legal incentives to produce safer food are weak, though slightly stronger in outbreak situations and in markets where foodborne illness can be more easily traced to individual firms. Far less than 0.01% of cases are litigated and even fewer are paid compensation. Second, even if potential plaintiffs can overcome the high information and transaction costs necessary to file lawsuits, monetary compensation provides only weak incentives to pursue litigation. Firms paid compensation in 56% of the 294 cases examined in this study and the median compensation was only $2,000 before legal fees. Third, indirect incentives for firms may be important and deserve more research. For example, firms may be influenced by costly settlements and decisions against other firms in the same industry. Fourth, confidential settlements, health insurance, and product liability insurance distort legal incentives to produce safer food. Fifth, the ambiguity about whether microbial contamination is “natural” or an “adulterant” hinders the legal system from effectively dealing with food safety issues. Sixth, a brief comparison of the incentives from U.S. and English legal systems suggests that more research is needed to understand the strengths, weaknesses, and relative impact of each country's legal system on the incentives to produce safer food.     

The dilemma of exchange rate arrangements in East Asia

This paper analyzes exchange rate flexibility in East Asia and explores what has changed since the Asian financial crisis. Our focus is not on the choice of an appropriate exchange rate regime in East Asia, but rather on exchange rate flexibility and management in the region. We find that exchange rate management in East Asia differs based on the country and the time period. We identify major concerns about current exchange rate arrangements in East Asia, including asymmetric responses to external shocks, competitive devaluation, and the dilemma of choosing between asset dollarization and liability dollarization. The paper concludes with some policy implications for an exchange rate arrangement in East Asia.

有限合伙制私募股权投资基金的内部治理

近几年,资本市场的需求使得我国私募股权投资基金呈现良好的发展势头,基于独特的组织形式制度优势,有限合伙制在我国私募股权投资基金领域得到更广泛的应用。但实践中,公司制法人作为有限合伙制私募股权投资基金的普通合伙人的常态化,可能会给其经营管理的运行带来消极影响。对于此类"组织形式有限合伙制、治理结构半公司制"的基金,本文将通过分析其内部构成,内部关系,发现其内部缺陷,从而提出激励和约束机制并存的治理方案。
