Our team is well-known for its advisory and transactional work with the world's largest financial institutions, including banks, asset managers, broker-dealers, trading platforms, insurers, payment services and fintech companies. We are regularly engaged by such institutions on complex, high-value and multi-jurisdictional matters, ranging from setting up businesses and launching new products and services, to responding to regulators and managing change.
