FinTech

Ireland has become a centre for financial services and technology in recent years, leading to a growing reputation as a FinTech hub

Led by Keith Waine, our FinTech practice advises a wide range of clients engaged in payments, electronic money, crypto-asset services, point-of-sale credit, non-bank lending and insurance tech. This work has ranged from authorisation applications and strategic regulatory perimeter issues to complex regulatory advice on capital requirements, anti-money laundering and consumer protection.

The deep and wide experience of the team and the wider firm in the areas of banking, payments, insurance, investment firms and investment funds gives us unique advantages in helping fintechs to obtain regulatory authorisation and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.
