Financial crime specialist trusted on regulatory defence
I am a partner in Shoosmiths’ Dispute Resolution & Litigation team, advising financial institutions, corporates and individuals on disputes and regulatory enforcement. My work includes complex disputes and investigations and engaging with regulators (FCA / PRA) including undertaking skilled person reviews. I have acted in landmark cases including cases relating to the LIBOR litigation and Banks obligations under POCA. to make suspicious activity reports when suspecting money laundering.
With over 30 years’ experience, I have advised on deferred prosecution agreements, cross-border compliance and anti-money laundering across multiple jurisdictions. I helped draft the Ministry of Justice’s Bribery Act guidance and advised the Joint Money Laundering Steering Group on its guidance to the financial servicers sector.
I am recognised in Legal 500 for my industry insight and strategic approach. I regularly speak on financial crime and compliance related matters and contribute to Shoosmiths’ ESG and regulatory thought leadership.
