Overview

Our approach

Banks, brokers, asset managers, leasing and consumer finance companies all operate under licences that can be limited or withdrawn, which makes regulation part of their daily business. We advise financial institutions on setting up and licensing in Egypt, launching new products, and meeting their ongoing obligations to the Central Bank of Egypt and the Financial Regulatory Authority. We help design anti-money laundering and know-your-customer frameworks that are workable in practice, and we review outsourcing, agency and technology arrangements that regulators tend to scrutinise. On the transactional side, we act on acquisitions of financial institutions, portfolio sales and the approvals that changes in ownership require. When a regulator raises concerns, we help clients respond in a measured and documented way.
