Volume 16, Number 4, December 2005 p.325

Having outlined the history and major features of the most frequently encountered payment facilities in a previous article, the author discusses the main risks associated with a range of payment facilities and how those risks can be addressed. The potential regulatory and supervisory options are introduced and the author discusses their advantages and disadvantages. Following further analysis, the author concludes that, on balance, some form of regulation is justified. The article goes on to outline the current regulatory regimes in Australia, the European Union, the United Kingdom and the United States. Finally, four potential regulatory models are described and assessed as potential law reform concepts to be further developed.

Doubting Good Faith
Michael Bridge
New Zealand Business Law Quarterly
Volume 11, Number 4, November 2005 p.426

This paper doubts the need for a general, legally imposed duty of good faith and fair dealing in English contract law. It explores the meaning and implications of such a duty in relation to the formation, performance, and enforcement of contracts, asking, with the use of specific examples, how “good faith”might apply in each of those contexts. The author also briefly considers the future of English law in a European Union whose law is driven primarily by civil law influences and the role that good faith might play in the harmonisation of transnational law. He asks whether English law can survive in its present form under the weight of those influences.
