The UV research groups (GIUV) are regulated in the 1st chapter of the Regulation ACGUV48/2013, which explains the procedure for creating new research structures. They are basic research and organizational structures that result from the voluntary association of researchers that share objectives, facilities, resources and common lines of research. These researchers are also committed to the consolidation and stability of their activity, work in groups and the capability to achieve a sustainable funding.
The research groups included in the previously mentioned Regulation are registered in the Register of Research Structures of the Universitat de València (REIUV), managed by the Office of the Vice-principal for Research. The basic information of these organisms can be found in this website.

Reference of the Group:
Description of research activity: The present research group was born in 2016 through the award of a national research project: The CNMV and the protection of retail investors: exploring new possibilities, granted by the Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (MINECO/FEDER). Thanks to it, a multidisciplinary working group has been consolidated, as required by the subject matter of our study, made up of experts with extensive academic and professional experience. Our research activity focuses on:
The need to improve certain administrative procedures developed by the CNMV to turn them into a channel for the protection of small investors.
Public action to protect small investors must be improved in the context of the democratisation of the securities market, which makes it necessary to seek alternatives such as arbitration or mediation.
Explore possibilities for investor redress through both public (administrative liability) and private (class actions).
Monitoring redress for consumers of financial products.
