FinTech Lawyers

We help innovators to thrive while staying compliant with fast-changing regulations.

In this section

FinTech has an inescapable relationship with law and regulation.

That's why we advise on the legal issues facing businesses that operate in the financial technology sector. Game-changing technologies like IoT connectivity and interfacing, artificial intelligence and machine learning, smart data discovery and interrogation, 5G and blockchain are being harnessed by start-ups, scale-ups, technology businesses and financial institutions to improve efficiency, connectivity and user experience in financial services. Since these technologies are so wide-ranging and fast-evolving, early engagement with legal advisors who are embedded in the sector is important. Lawmakers and regulators are increasingly engaged with innovative technologies — and as the law adapts, you need lawyers who are focused on doing the same.

We're highly active in the thriving financial services, technology and professional services ecosystems — working with a range of professional and government organisations involved in FinTech. Thanks to our technology funding offering, we're well placed to advise on relevant corporate, commercial and regulatory issues, while our cross-sector approach gives us insight into how emerging technologies can be deployed elsewhere. This proves helpful to clients who are developing innovative, technology-driven products and services.
