Legal advice on Digital Financial Services and Fintech

Digital is a priority for financial institutions around the world. Mobile banking is the norm and online investment platforms and innovative payment services continue to hit the market. With the pace of change set to accelerate even further, we offer Fintech lawyers with a global coverage to help you capitalize on the opportunities presented by a digital offering, including those issues relating to insurance, payment services, data privacy, regulatory compliance and social media.

Our full service Digital Financial Services group draws together lawyers and consultants from across our practice areas. The group operates in conjunction with our product teams to support financial institutions, whether in connection with the development of their in-house capabilities or on the acquisition of Fintech companies. Our experience of digital project delivery, broad knowledge and use of regional teams allows us to deliver a cost effective solution.

We focus on innovation in financial services, including mobile payments and e-money. We have market-leading and legal directory ranked teams in payments, data privacy, consumer credit, financial services regulation, insurance and consumer law.
