Fintech

The Fintech sector is diverse and fast-moving. We combine expertise across corporate, banking, insurance and employment with our expertise in technology, contracts and data protection to provide a holistic approach.

For financial services institutions, we can help you to collaborate effectively with fintechs in order to transform your business. We can help deliver business-critical finance and technology solutions, understanding how new disruptive technologies integrate with existing systems and have the potential to change how your business operates and how services are delivered.

For fintechs, we can help you to build, grow and protect your business and navigate your relationships with larger institutions at all stages of your growth cycle and regarding all aspects of your business operations.

We advise many fast growth technology companies, specifically on their venture capital and growth fundraisings from seed through to later stage Series A, B and C and generally on corporate, commercial, employment and other work. We also act for investors and investment funds focussing on the fintech sector.
