Shearman & Sterling’s global Financial Institutions Advisory & Financial Regulatory practice works on complex cross-border issues and transactions and has advised on a significant number of high profile, first-in-kind, challenging regulatory and compliance matters.
Our practice is truly multi-jurisdictional in its scope, with our core group practicing in London, New York and Washington, DC, and additional regulatory expertise in Toronto, Frankfurt, Paris, Milan, Brussels, Singapore and Beijing, among other offices. This allows us to match the global presence of many of our clients and provide seamless coverage in core jurisdictions. Our cross-border practice allows us to stay ahead of regulatory trends and anticipate issues that may be relevant to you. Most recently our team has been at the forefront of discussions of how Brexit will affect businesses in the UK and globally.
We provide a full global service to many of the major banks and large financial institutions, bank holding companies, brokers, investment firms, insurance and reinsurance companies, exchanges, fund firms, SEFs/MTFs, clearing and settlement providers, and payment service providers.
