At Bird & Bird Szepietowski i wspólnicy sp. k., the finance and financial regulation practice is divided into two sub-groups: one is focused on advising financial institutions on financial regulatory and fintech issues and is led by Sławomir Szepietowski, while the other is headed up by Maciej Georg and handles financing transactions, advising both lenders and borrowers on domestic and cross-border mandates, especially those regarding real estate assets. The team is also experienced in contentious matters surrounding financing. Counsel Marta Stanisławska is a key member of the team when it comes to advising financial institutions on adjusting activities to changing legal requirements.
