Camilleri Preziosi has mustered significant regulatory expertise and experience in relation to both licensing and operational matters in relation to banking, assisting clients in negotiations with the regulator for the purpose of setting up operations in Malta and, thereafter, in ensuring compliance with the regulatory framework and the regulator’s directions.

As part of the firm’s daily exposure to financial services and the assistance given in this field to banks and other financial institutions, fund managers, stockbrokers, custodians, investment funds and their promoters, we are familiar with:

- queries about whether particular activities constitute regulated activities requiring authorisation;
- the process of securing, where necessary, approvals and authorisations from the regulator;
- cross-border financial services activities and EU passporting procedures;
- compliance issues, providing compliance manuals and other materials where necessary;
- dispute resolution or litigation involving financial services products, practitioners and enterprises.
