Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
‘With the addition of Lena Kiely, the Bank Regulatory team at A&O Shearman is now a trusted firm to turn to for Bank Regulatory advice. ’
‘Lena Kiely is a strong technical expert in banking regulation, but what really makes her a valuable adviser is that she draws on her in-house experience to also take into account the practical implications of the advice and thinks about what the client will need to do, and any related hurdles that will need to be overcome, to implement the advice internally. She also thinks about any related internal risk governance and controls implications, so that beyond simply providing an answer to a legal question, she helps highlight internal governance considerations that often are just as important.’
