About Fintech, Privacy & Emerging Technologies

We work with established businesses as well as start-ups, in both mature and emerging markets.

Each incumbent and start-up has its own particular opportunities and challenges. We are well-placed to assist: our team has decades of experience in advising clients in regulated industries like banking and financial services, telecommunications, and the energy and water industry, often working as part of a multidisciplinary team together with IT and risk professionals. We work closely with start-ups and appreciate the difficulties and costs faced by ‘first movers’ in regulated environments.

Our service is flexible and user friendly. We can assist with ‘whole of business’ regulatory change for large clients, as well as with more limited mandates for smaller clients and start-ups.

In addition to regulatory advice, documentation, applications and approvals, we add value in the drafting and negotiation of commercial contracts – allocating rights and responsibilities in regulated environments. These contracts include those between data sources and data recipients in a data sharing or open banking environment, and those between payment system participants.
