The Financial Services Regulatory & Enforcement Practice includes lawyers with senior-level experience with federal financial institution regulators, and offers extensive experience with, and an in-depth understanding of, the financial services industry. Our experience with all major federal financial regulatory schemes, and knowledge of major sectors of the financial services industry, allows us to offer our clients broad-based, highly practical and knowledgeable advice that is sensitive to our clients' business objectives and priorities, current developments and trends affecting their businesses, and regulatory sensibilities. We bring to our clients a high level of substantive knowledge and judgment, the ability to understand and respond quickly and flexibly to client needs and concerns, and a strong understanding of, and the ability to harmonize, the multiple legal and regulatory schemes that affect our clients' business activities.
In keeping with the Firm's global approach to servicing its clients, the Financial Services Regulatory & Enforcement Practice plays an integral role in assisting key practice areas of the Firm in meeting our clients' needs. We work in close consultation with diverse Firm practice groups, including: the Firm's Corporate and Securities practice group on financial services business combination and other corporate matters; its Litigation practice group on financial services administrative and judicial litigation and appellate matters; the Information Technology practice group on financial services technology and outsourcing matters; the Investment Management, Private Investment Fund and Wealth Management practice groups on financial asset management issues; and the Employee Benefits and Compensation practice group on ERISA and other tax deferred asset management issues.
Our capabilities and experience also extend across national borders, in that we also bring to our clients, through our European financial regulatory practice specialists, the ability to advise US and international financial services firms on cross-border financial regulatory matters.
Our Financial Services Regulatory & Enforcement Practice's breadth and diversity of experience and knowledge, and ability to contribute to our clients' business objectives, serves our clients well in an ever-changing and increasingly demanding operating and strategic environment.
