We offer

Our practice covers a broad range of financial services regulatory matters such as payment services (PSD 2 / SEPA), MiFID II, banking regulations, investment funds (UCITS/AIFMD), securities custody, consumer credit, market abuse, anti-money laundering, etc.

As an Associate in our Banking & Finance team, you will be involved in a broad range of projects, including advising and assisting (international) clients on a variety of regulatory questions (by providing ad hoc advice, drafting legal memorandums, assisting in license application files, etc.).

The nature of the (regulatory) work conducted by the team necessitates that our team members perform thorough legal analyses without losing sight of the (commercial) needs of our clients. We are a young but very dedicated team which puts emphasis on teamwork and a cross-sectoral approach and you will be expected to work well with colleagues from other departments and offices.
