About

Provided by Shoosmiths LLP

Shoosmiths' specialist cross-disciplinary team guides and supports clients of all sizes - from investors and start-ups, to challengers, institutions, and household names.

As FinTech has evolved, so have we. Our team of specialist lawyers have the expertise and experience needed to guide and support clients across the FinTech ecosystem - from solution providers, disruptors, and investors, through to businesses and institutions looking to procure new products and services or to partner and collaborate.

We understand the unique balance which those engaged with FinTech must strike between innovation, complex commercial and technical arrangements, and wide-ranging legal and regulatory requirements. We also appreciate that the pace of change and fierce competition make agility and speed to market key.

We can help establish and run a suitable business structure; navigate complex regulations; ensure products, services and customer journeys are designed in a compliant manner. We can also assist with the protection and commercialisation of new ideas, innovations and brands and help put strategic supply and partnership arrangements in place. We can assist you in assessing potential new partners or suppliers, in running procurements, and in negotiating new collaboration or procurement agreements. We can help you raise finance and investments, enter into joint ventures or strategic partnerships, acquire or dispose of businesses and assets, and ultimately carry out listings.
