Our Financial Services Group provides advice to clients in the financial services sector on all their legal requirements, including financing transactions, regulatory issues, commercial contracts and dispute resolution.
Clients include commercial and investment banks, funds, asset managers, insurers, financial intermediaries, brokers and retail product providers.
Our financial services regulatory team deals with obtaining authorisations and with ongoing compliance issues for regulated institutions - including rules relating to the outsourcing of core services, rulebook observance generally, conflicts of interest, market abuse, insider trading and money laundering. We are also very familiar with advising on situations with a contentious aspect - such as regulatory investigations and disciplinary proceedings.
Our financial services expertise is complemented by our market-leading strength in IT, technology, data protection, intellectual property and e-commerce. This combination has been particularly powerful in relation to outsourcings by regulated institutions and the development of products in the fields of electronic banking and financial services, electronic money and other online payment systems.
