We deal with financial and insurance brokerage and investment services and activities in the complex regulation of financial law.
We are concerned with the set of laws, rules and regulations created to ensure that individuals and entities that invest money in financial instruments have appropriate rights and protections. This type of protection aims to create an environment in which investors can make informed decisions, minimizing the risk of fraud, market manipulation and other unfair practices.
Our well-established experience in financial services enables us to provide specific legal protection of financial investors aimed at restoring the proper balance between investment promotion and protection of investors’ interests, ensuring the enforcement of rules that protect the integrity of financial markets.
The Main Scope :
- Financial litigation. Investments: We offer comprehensive legal advice and support in disputes related to the application of the Consolidated Financial Act (T.U.F.). We deal with litigation – including cases of losses related to financial investments – between financial intermediaries and clients, covering financial and insurance intermediation, provision of services and investment activities.
- Intermediary and Credit Institution Liability: We are experienced in dealing with issues related to intermediary liability for financial investments, mismanagement, default, and other irregularities. We represent our clients in judgments related to financial instruments, bonds, derivatives and controversial investments.
- Financial and Insurance Products: We provide legal assistance in cases brought by savers and investors regarding complex financial products. We handle disputes concerning derivatives, unit-linked life insurance, index-linked life insurance, and other forms of so-called insurance financial products.
- Banking Transparency: We address issues related to the liability of the bank and the financial intermediary, i.e., financial advisors for violations of banking transparency. We protect the rights of our clients in case of irregularities or violations of regulations.
The main areas of financial investor legal protection we deal with include :
- Disclosure of information: Banking and financial institutions are required to provide accurate, complete and timely information regarding their financial situation, operations, risks and performance. This allows investors to make decisions based on real, current data.
- Market regulation: Financial regulators establish rules and regulations to ensure that financial markets are fair, transparent and efficient. This includes monitoring insider trading practices, price manipulation and other illegal activities.
- Protection of shareholders’ interests: Shareholders have rights to be protected such as the right to vote. It is necessary to know and protect the rights of minority shareholders and how to exercise their rights.
- Anti-fraud rules: Rules are in place to prohibit financial fraud and other unfair practices in investment. This includes investigation and prosecution of financial scams and other fraudulent activities.
- Liability of financial advisors: Financial advisors are required to act in the best interest of their clients and to provide adequate and appropriate advice, being liable- failing that- for damages caused to investors.
- Compensation for aggrieved investors: We assist aggrieved investors who seek compensation for losses incurred due to misleading information, corporate misconduct, or other harmful situations.
