Underpinned by a deep understanding of the complex and labyrinthine nature of the Greek financial regulatory framework, Tsibanoulis & Partners is particularly well suited to handling both standalone and transactional-driven regulatory issues for lenders, securities investment firms and state-owned entities. The scope of this work is broad and includes regulatory advice associated with M&A in the sector, ATHEX-related listings compliance and advice on payments/fintech matters. Recognised as a thought leader in the space, managing partner Dimitris Tsibanoulis ' vast regulatory know-how - some of which was informed by his involvement in the recapitalisation of the Greek banks following the debt crisis - is valued by clients, both from a non-contentious and contentious perspective. Emmanouil Komis , who excels at guiding clients through the regulatory and supervisory aspects associated with the capital markets framework, and Konstantinos Antonakis, who leverages vast in-house banking expertise to good effect on regulatory and lending work, co-head the team alongside Tsibanoulis.
