Abstract: The article reflects the work and results under a university scientific project (UNWE, 2017- 2019) bearing the same title. The choice of the specific aspects to be explored is based on the market developments post-2008, when the world was already affected by the Global financial and economic crisis. The banking sector regulation is a subject of the first main part, as the banks were in the epicenter of the financial collapse in 2008 and afterwards, when many weaknesses and gaps in banking regulations became evident. The second main part of the article is about the financial derivatives market – those financial instruments were defined as drivers of the globalization of the crisis. The developments on the financial derivatives market, including its regulation, have a great impact on the global financial system and most notably on its stability. The third main part of the article treats the problems of alternative finance, as a forceful process of circumventing traditional banking is taking place. This is a new field, based on financial innovation, and its regulation is a contemporary matter. The fourth part is about the regulatory reforms of the Bulgarian financial market, given in perspective for a EU member state and respectively the effects for the national economy.
