Working in collaboration with other firm-wide practices, including banking and finance, the financial services regulation team Pérez-Llorca advises a variety of prominent financial services clients–most notably asset managers and investment firms–on their regulatory requirements in Spain. The group stands out for its expertise in compliance and risk management procedures, corporate transactions involving regulated sectors, and payment services matters; it is also skilled in the regulatory implications of financing deals. Josefina García Pedroviejo is singled out for her ‘deep knowledge of financial regulation and investment funds’. Eduardo Arbizu draws on his significant in-house experience at various leading banks. Cristina Vidal joined from Ramón y Cajal Abogados in February 2025.
