I advise a broad range of banks, broker-dealers, hedge funds, asset managers, and corporates on EU and UK financial regulation matters, including:
- authorisation and perimeter issues;
- MiFID II and MiFIR;
- EMIR;
- Benchmarks Regulation; and
- MAR
I also have substantial experience advising predominantly sell-side clients on derivatives and structured finance transactions. In particular, I have advised on: finance-linked derivatives and deal contingent transactions (in connection with acquisition financings, project financings, and securitisations); OTC and exchange-traded documentation; clearing documentation; structured repurchase, credit derivatives and total return swap transactions; stock lending; collateral management; and prime brokerage arrangements.
Prior to joining Fieldfisher, I worked on a variety of other transactional matters including general bank lending, debt capital markets, and restructuring. I was also briefly an interest rate derivatives trader at a large US investment bank.
