Full Description
With interesting developments last year such as the shift to AI-powered solutions, digital assets and cryptocurrencies causing regulators more headaches and an ever-increasing focus on regulatory compliance, fintech law looks set for yet another fascinating year ahead.
The publication - now in its ninth edition - sets out to cover practical questions within the fintech law topic across 35 jurisdictions, providing indispensable information from leading legal minds for the benefit of you, the Readers. There is also a deep dive through the Expert Analysis contribution from Slaughter and May into EU and UK operational resilience.
Between the ever-changing geo-political environment, developments in the payments landscape, continued scrutiny into anti-money laundering and the increased use and development of tokenisation, the next few years will undoubtedly continue to see huge developments for this sector, making this publication's importance greater now more than ever. As always, this publication has been written by leading fintech lawyers and industry specialists, for whose invaluable contributions the editors and publishers are extremely grateful. I would also like to extend special thanks to contributing editors David Ives, David Shone and James Cook from Slaughter and May for their leadership, support and expertise in bringing this project to fruition.
