Financial Services

Few industries have been affected by digitalisation as much as the financial sector. Fintech start-ups are leading retail banking services into the digital era with innovative app-based solutions. Payment system operators develop ever more ways of access in order to reduce transaction costs for consumers and expand their reach. Blockchain technology opens new possibilities for monetary transactions without the dependence on big finance.

All the exciting development does not come without challenges for financial services providers as well regulators. We advise on how to best tackle the economic questions of the new financial world.

Regulation. Regulatory density in financial markets is increasing. We support regulatory bodies and private sector clients in building an understanding of how markets work and of how regulations affect market outcomes.

Big Data. We support our clients in extracting value from their business data. We identify patterns in your data that help you categorise risk factors and client behaviour.

Competition Investigations. Pricing and business models of stock exchanges, credit card providers, and other financial platforms increasingly come under scrutiny from competition authorities. We advise our clients on risks associated with pricing schemes and support them during proceedings with authorities.
