Crypto, Regulatory Associate 3+ PQE
Our leading Financial Services team is busier than ever, from helping our clients to develop new products and services to assisting them with significant regulatory, transactional and/or operational change projects. There promises to be even more work over the next few years as the UK regulatory landscape continues to change, and new, innovative products and services are launched. For example, the emergence of new Fintech solutions is changing how financial institutions and their clients and service providers operate, and challenging regulators in how to ensure that they supervise those institutions appropriately.
