Key industry topics
We are embedded in the fintech ecosystem and immersed in policy development and are deeply involved with key industry bodies and government expert groups
Open Banking is one of the most exciting developments in financial services for years, with the potential to revolutionise how consumers engage with financial products and services. We are focused on supporting clients make the most of these new opportunities
Block chain is revolutionising the way companies, investors and the Financial Services industry as a whole, do business. Our global sector teams are at the forefront of this digital revolution. We advise on the legal and regulatory compliance obligations in multiple jurisdictions.
AI is something we put into practice. We have successfully delivered numerous projects for our clients using our proprietary AI technology. Our own team of computer scientists and legal engineers put artificial intelligence into practical context for our lawyers and clients.
We are closely involved in shaping the policy agenda across Europe in relation to the use of the public cloud for financial services. In 2016 we formed an industry group together with the BBA (now UK Finance) to enable senior persons across the BBA’s membership to discuss frictions which hold banks back from fully embracing the cloud.
We are one of the largest and most experienced cyber and information teams in the UK, combining advisory and contentious data protection expertise with strong financial services experience.
