Financial Services

Operating in the Financial Services sector requires legal strategies that address regulatory and enforcement risks and the costs of compliance. We help our clients to deal with legal issues in banking - including restructurings, regulatory demands and the compliance costs that have come with reform. We have extensive knowledge in structured export and trade finance, ECA financing and project financing. In addition, we regularly advise our clients on the legal issues involved in the selling of financial services to consumers.

We represent clients in banking and commercial transactions and advise them to meet their needs in regulatory, public policy and enforcement areas. Outside Finland and the Nordic region, we have lawyers located in all major capital markets and in the regulatory centres of Washington, DC and Brussels. 

Our clients include retail banks, asset managers, capital markets and their participants, investment banks, national regulators, private banks and private equity firms.
