Financial services

Our experience with commercial banks includes setting up new entrants in the high-street market, through lending transactions to complex cross-border restructuring.

Underpinning the global banking system is financial technology (FinTech), and our work in the sector ranges from corporate work, like mergers and acquisitions, to technology procurement, systems integration and intellectual property protection.

We advise investment banks across the range of their operations, including employment, financial disputes, investigations, regulatory, transactional services, insolvency/restructuring, lending, technology, brands and marketing.

In investment funds, our team has long-standing strengths in fund formation and advisory work, private equity and venture capital transactions. We cover the tax and regulatory aspects too.

We support professional service providers to the sector, including regulated financial institutions such as major accountancy and audit practices, on areas such as IT and outsourcing transactions, financial disputes and litigation, restructuring and insolvency projects and employment matters.
