Financial Regulatory

Providers of financial services, such as banks, payment institutions, insurance companies, investment firms, and fund managers, are subject to extensive regulations. These regulations encompass organisation, capital, and business conduct requirements.

We possess extensive expertise in financial regulatory issues and have significant experience in assisting regulated companies with all aspects of their organisation and operations, including interactions with Norwegian and foreign supervisory authorities. Several of our lawyers have work experience from relevant public authorities. We also have a robust practice relating to the regulations to combat anti-money laundering and anti-terrorist financing. Wiersholm’s lawyers collaborate across disciplines to ensure that all aspects of the client’s needs are addressed.

Wiersholm are leading experts in the market on the financial regulatory framework, and have the ability to translate an often complicated formal legal language into something that is understandable.
