Advising on the laws of the BVI, the Cayman Islands, Ireland, Jersey and Luxembourg, our global team of Regulatory & Financial Services Advisory lawyers provides expert legal advice for regulatory enforcement including with respect to onsite or offsite inspections and the resulting reports, the imposition and/or appeal of administrative fines, production orders and other exchange-on-request notices, advice on potential exposure / implications in the case of regulatory investigations, and negotiating settlement agreements.
With enforcement activity from regulators and authorities in these jurisdictions increasing each year, our teams are able to combine in-depth knowledge of the key enforcement areas (such as beneficial ownership, economic substance, CRS, AML/CFT/CPF and sanctions) with specialist regulatory and litigation expertise.
Additionally, our Irish and Luxembourg teams routinely advise on the interpretation of EU requirements including Solvency II, capital adequacy, remuneration rules and the EU Commission’s Capital Markets Union initiative within their respective jurisdictions.
Time is of the essence in any regulatory enforcement matter, and our specialist teams are able to use their in-depth industry knowledge and experience to respond quickly and efficiently.
