Grand
Cayman, October 2019

Walkers' group of
Regulatory & Risk Advisory experts, the largest dedicated
offshore practice of its kind, focussed exclusively on regulation and
staffed with experienced career regulatory lawyers, continues to grow
to meet market and client demand. The group is strategically
positioned across the Americas, Europe and Asia to ensure the most
comprehensive and global coverage for clients.

With lawyers who have
worked for key regulators, including the Cayman Islands Monetary
Authority, Bermuda Monetary Authority, UK Financial Conduct
Authority, and Central Bank of Ireland – and who bring significant
expertise from global financial institutions and private practice –
Walkers' Regulatory & Risk Advisory practice group is positioned
to offer exceptional commercial insight on complex regulatory
matters.

The group recently
welcomed new joiners Melanie Fullerton, a senior associate in
Bermuda; Benjamin Twidle, an associate in the Cayman Islands; and
Jason Hung, an associate in Hong Kong, earlier this year. Associate
Shikha Kasal and senior associate Ekaterina Harrison joined the
Cayman Islands and London practices in October, bringing the total
number of full-time dedicated regulatory lawyers in Walkers'
Regulatory & Risk Advisory practice group to 21, with hiring
ongoing.

Regulatory & Risk
Advisory partner, Lucy Frew, who is based in Grand Cayman, states,
"We are very proud of our group, which is the largest
dedicated offshore regulatory group in the market. Our approach has
always been to keep clients front of mind and one step ahead of any
relevant regulatory developments through a combination of seamless
client service and thought leadership."

Walkers' Regulatory &
Risk Advisory practice group offers Bermuda, British Virgin Islands,
Cayman Islands, Guernsey, Irish and Jersey law advice on regulatory
matters on a global basis and regularly advises non-regulated and
regulated financial institutions and sectors. Lawyers have
significant non-contentious and contentious regulatory experience and
well-established track records of advising in an international
regulatory context.

Global Managing Partner, Ingrid Pierce, comments, "As part of
our business strategy, we continuously evaluate our structure and
service offering to ensure we are best aligned to focus on our
clients and their needs. We have seen massive growth in regulatory
matters and our Regulatory & Risk Advisory group, which continues
to lead the market in global positioning and depth of expertise. Our
expansion continues."
