FESSUD researcher and associate Professor in the Poznan University of Economics (POL), Michal Jurek, has just released a book entitled “The Structure of Ownership in the Financial Sector across the European Union”.
The purpose of this report is to analyse the structure of ownership in the financial sector in a set of old (France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Sweden, the United Kingdom) and new (the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland) EU Member States. It investigates and evaluates the evolution of the structure of ownership (public, private, and social, including credit unions and cooperative banks) in the financial sector across the EU and its consequences with the special consideration of relations between this process and withdrawal of the State from the financial sector.
