Financial supervision law

Financial supervision law is complex and constantly changing. Laws and regulations follow each other in quick succession and are regularly amended. As a result, financial institutions active on the financial markets are increasing regulatory pressure. This may lead to far-reaching consequences for their activities, daily operations and revenue models. In this rapidly changing landscape, Van Doorne has a team of financial regulatory specialists. They are fully up to date with current developments of (European and national) laws and regulations, have knowledge of the market and constantly anticipate and respond to the latest developments in the sector.
