Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP‘s derivatives practice is well-regarded for its regulatory and enforcement capacities, alongside a breadth of experience in derivative transactions. The team has considerable expertise in CFTC, SEC, FERC, NFA and Dodd-Frank regulations, and is often retained by clients for contentious matters before the CFTC, along with helping clients navigate regulatory environments. The team is also turned to for its breadth of expertise in derivative asset classes, including OTC swaps, forwards, caps, floors, collars, and hedging linked to interest rate, currency, commodities, equity and esoteric asset classes.  New York-based Thomas D’Ambrosio has great experience in derivative transactions and product structuring, ranging from repos and crypto to equity, credit currency, and commodities. He co-heads the team with Michael Philipp , based in Chicago, and often involved in OTC derivative transactions and CFTC regulatory matters. Chicago's Stacie Hartman is sought by financial institutions in the derivatives market for her expertise in contentious matters, while Boston-based Katherine Dobson Buckley is a frequent port of call for hedge funds, investors, and mutual funds.
