He focuses on whether institutions and fund structures are subject to UK and European regulation and on advising on the interpretation of the Financial Conduct Authority’s and the Prudential Regulatory Authority’s rule books. He supports firms and individuals when they need to engage with financial services regulators (including with breach; change of control and waiver notifications as well as authorisations) and helps clients (typically fund managers; investment firms; banks; and payment firms) prepare for regulatory change. Increasingly Tim is also advising fund managers and institutions on the impact of ESG regulation.
