Lawyer Rankings
Deutschland > Bank- und Finanzrecht > Finanzmarktaufsicht
Durch die enge praxisübergreifende Kooperation wird Hogan Lovells International LLPs bankaufsichtsrechtliche Expertise regelmäßig im Rahmen von Umstrukturierungen, Reorganisationen und Transaktionen im Bankenwesen sowie im Compliance-Bereich und im Zusammenhang mit internen Untersuchungen abgefragt; insbesondere die Expertise im Investigation-Bereich führte jüngst zu einer Zunahme an Mandatierungen im Zusammenhang mit Sonderprüfungen der BaFin. Ebenso erfahren zeigt man sich an der kapitalmarktrechtlichen Schnittstelle, wo man beispielsweise weiterhin Banken bei ihren Klagen gegen die Europäische Abwicklungsbehörde (Single Resolution Board) in Zusammenhang mit der Bankenabgabe betreut und sie zum Vertrieb strukturierter Produkte berät. Ergänzt wird dies durch Beratungskapazitäten im Payment- und FinTech-Bereich; ein Beratungssegment, dessen Bedeutung man mit der Partnerernennung von Sarah Wrage im Januar 2024 unterstrich. Geleitet wird die Gruppe von Richard Reimer (institutionelles und produktspezifisches Bankaufsichtsrecht), der unter anderem von Counsel Andreas Doser (deutsches und europäisches Bankaufsichtsrecht) unterstützt wird.
