Compliance, Sanctions and Risk

As our clients are increasingly faced with challenging and complex matters from regulators, our Compliance, Sanctions and Risk team provides the pragmatic, sound advice they require.

Regulators are becoming increasingly radical in the sanctions they impose. In addition, greater domestic and cross-border cooperation amongst them increases the likelihood of discovering infringements. We assist large companies, financial institutions, and public/semi-public bodies through every stage of these often complex proceedings.
