Commercial and investment banks, insurance companies and brokers, public quoted companies and their directors, the regulators and exchanges all rely on our familiarity with, and expertise in, regulatory investigations and disciplinary proceedings. Across Europe, Asia Pacific (including Australia), Canada, Africa and the Middle East our specialist investigations and enforcement team work closely with our highly rated non-contentious regulatory and corporate lawyers on some of the world’s most significant regulatory investigations.
We appear before a majority of the most important regulatory bodies, including the Financial Services Authority (FSA), the Serious Fraud Office (SFO), the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS), the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) and Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (HMRC). Our familiarity with the regulators is enhanced through regular secondments, including the recent secondment of a senior associate as legal adviser to the FSA’s Regulatory Decisions Committee.
