BonelliErede’s financial regulatory practice has a strong market reputation for Italian banking sector M&A transactions, including authorisation procedures before the Italian authorities. The team also advises banks and investment firms on the rules governing investment services and banking; and it is increasingly mandated for asset management work. Giuseppe Rumi is a widely-respected banking and insurance regulation specialist; Anna Di Vilio focuses on asset management and investment funds; and Andrea Savigliano's practice encompasses corporate governance, compliance and anti-money laundering. Giulio Vece is another key banking and financial regulation practitioner.
