Interactions between regulatory realms: new administrative law and credit rating agencies in a globalized society

This article examines European legislation and academic literature concerning the regulation of Credit Rating Agencies (CRAs) during times of crisis, focusing on the perspective of administrative law in global governance. To this end, it proposes a perspective that considers a communicative process to minimise negative consequences for society within the context of CRA regulatory activity. Existing regulations, reports from European, American, and international authorities, as well as relevant literature, are reviewed to understand how regulatory challenges are addressed in the era of globalization.
