Research Interest: 
Int'l Financial Regulation And Global Administrative Law

Mr. Syam is planning to research the disconnect between the globalization of financial services and the localization of their regulatory regimes. In particular Mr. Syam hopes to discover if international financial regulatory institutions can be made more participative and transparent in their functioning when the principles of the evolving global administrative laws are applied to such organizations. His primary focus is on mechanisms that constitute the international financial architecture, including the Basle Committee on Banking Supervision and the International Association of Insurance Supervisors. Mr. Syam believes it is important to bring such organizations into the jurisdiction of international law without lessening their efficacy.
