The banking industry is facing significant strategic challenges from new market entrants such as Bigtech and Fintech companies, due to the digitization of many aspects of banking and finance. At the same time, the constant evolution of international, European and local banking regulations and compliance rules are a driving force shaping the evolution of the banking industry in Europe. 

To meet these strategic challenges and changing customer expectations, banks must increasingly automate their processes, while at the same time complying with the regulatory and compliance frameworks of the European markets they operate in. 

Our Financial Regulatory Hub Europe in Frankfurt works closely with a Dentons’ wider team in Europe to advise companies, industry and trade organizations on the pan-European framework and its implementation into the national law of the EU-27 member states. We support banks and other market participants in navigating the regulatory and compliance challenges and pursuing operational efficiency and financial innovation. We support the banking industry with the legal, regulatory and tax structuring aspects of their business.
