Our cross-practice team brings together transactional, regulatory and disputes expertise, and covers all aspects of legal advice for financial institutions including investment and mutual funds. We place much of our emphasis on managing regulatory risk and advise on the whole spectrum of regulatory compliance issues (e.g. senior management responsibilities, customer documentation and terms of business, financial promotions, disclosure requirements, insider dealing, market manipulation). We aim to enable our clients to minimise regulatory interventions.

Our work relates to:
M&A
Joint ventures
Restructurings
Establishment and authorisation of new businesses
Financing transactions
Securitisations
Public bids and takeovers
Private equity
Equity and debt capital markets
Litigation regarding regulatory compliance
Development and review of compliance policies, terms of business and        procedures
Regulatory issues arising from specific transactions or trading practices

Our work in this sector is mostly a cross-over between our Corporate & Commercial and our Finance & Capital Markets practice areas.
