Drawing heavily from across regulatory, finance, corporate and funds disciplines in particular, Loyens & Loeff's integrated multi-disciplinary offering is well-placed to handle big-ticket strategically important fintech projects. The team has developed particular strength advising on cryptocurrency and tokenisation matters, as well as in relation to handling licensing applications for electronic money institutions and virtual asset providers. Financial services regulatory expert Adrien Pierre is across much of the highest-profile work handled by the team, including his role alongside the corporate team for DeutscheBörse Group on its acquisition of all outstanding shares of the Luxembourg Fintech company FundsDLT. Banking and finance lawyer Anne-Marie Nicolas co-heads the team alongside Pierre and as well as her fee-earning work is also very well-connected in the fintech ecosystem, including various trade bodies/think tanks pushing for a more security token offering (STO) friendly environment in Luxembourg.
