Martin Livingston joins Ogier in Cayman to strengthen regulatory support
Regulatory specialist Martin Livingston has
joined Ogier as a consultant to further meet the growing demand for Cayman
Islands regulatory expertise and reinforce the deep regulatory advisory bench.
With more than 30 years of experience in risk
management and regulatory compliance, Martin will be providing clients with
Cayman regulatory advice, with a focus on assisting the firm’s Asian and Middle
Eastern client base.
Martin’s clients include major global
investment banks, funds, managers, advisers and family offices, and he advises
on matters including anti-money laundering and anti-terrorist financing,
sanctions, data protection, regulatory and tax reporting, virtual assets and
M&A projects.
During his career, Martin has forged strong
relationships with key regulatory bodies such as Cayman Islands Monetary
Authority (CIMA), the Cayman Department of International Tax Cooperation, and
the Cayman Financial Reporting Authority. He has chaired, and been a member of,
various Cayman legislative sub-committees, helping to formulate several
important financial service laws, regulations and guidance. He was also
President of the Cayman Islands Compliance Association for more than a decade.
His appointment follows the addition of Technology and Web3
expert Alastair Lagrange to Ogier's Cayman Regulatory team earlier this year.
Ogier’s Global Head of Investment Funds, Joanne
Huckle, said: "We are excited for Martin to join our team, growing our
coverage in the Asia time zone and building our regulatory offering."
