Our global Financial
Institutions team
Financial technology is changing the
face of financial services and overturning
assumptions about the way they are
delivered. Disruptive technologies are
challenging the traditional models for
the provision of services.
We work across all major market sectors,
including retail and investment banks,
intermediaries, peer to peer lenders, FinTech
companies, alternative lenders, asset
managers, infrastructure providers, as well as,
industry bodies and regulators. This means we
bring a complete market view to your projects.
Strong relationships with local, national, and
supranational regulatory bodies mean we can
navigate regulations to find solutions or lobby
for change where none can be found.
Our knowledge of what is happening
across our sector can help you develop in
new markets.
We can assist in the design and rollout of
new products or assist in the acquisition of
new businesses.
Our ability to deliver on transatlantic
contentious matters is unmatched. We can
help you through major regulatory
investigations or assist with internal reviews
across your global business to ensure
compliance with the complex web of
regulatory requirements.
Because you work globally, so do we — with
teams on the ground in major financial hubs
and offices in the emerging economies.
