Financial Services

Legal Director: Wendy specialises in financial services and markets law and regulation, both advisory and contentious. She has gained a breadth of experience from different perspectives across the industry – at a regulator, in-house at a UK retail bank and a global investment bank, and in private practice – which enables her to provide informed and strategic advice and guidance to clients.

Wendy advises a wide range of clients. These are mostly financial services firms, but she also advise providers to the financial services sector. The nature of the advice ranges from one-off ad hoc financial services regulatory queries, to reviews of policies and implementation projects, to work on larger contentious matters.

Examples from across the broad spectrum of financial services regulatory work Wendy has covered includes:

• Commercial and technology contracts
• Corporate transactional advice
• Investigations and regulatory issues
