I specialise in compliance issues arising from data privacy, financial crime and financial regulation by the UK Financial Conduct Authority.

I frequently speak on compliance and enforcement topics, particularly GDPR implementation, privacy and data protection issues for cross-border investigations, financial crime, the UK Bribery Act, the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, director and officer liability, and compliance programme design, implementation and monitoring.
