Law firm welcomes financial services partner
Deloitte Legal has recently announced the appointment of Clare Jenkinson to its financial services team, with a focus on financial services regulation and regulatory technology (RegTech) law. 

Clare (pictured) joins from HSBC where she specialised in wholesale financial services regulation, regulatory change and, more recently, digital assets and services. She brings with her over 15 years of banking and financial services legal expertise, having also previously held roles with both Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer, and Travers Smith.

Commenting on her appointment, Clare said: 'As clients in the financial services industry face increasing pressures, I’m excited to be able to support them in regulation challenges. I look forward to developing legal RegTech solutions to address regulatory issues and using my in-house experience to provide insightful and commercial legal advice on wholesale regulatory matters alongside the wider Deloitte offering.'

Jake Ghanty, partner and head of financial regulation at Deloitte Legal, said: 'Clare brings with her extensive law firm and in-house experience and a deep knowledge of digital developments, ensuring Deloitte Legal is well-placed to deliver both regulatory consultancy and legal advice.'
