Banking and financial law

EY Law Poland advises on complex projects in the field of banking law and financial law, based on the assumption that strict compliance not only protects against regulatory risk, but also enables the use of emerging opportunities.

In this way, EY Law experts not only protect companies from regulatory risks, but also enable them to benefit from the potential that the process brings.
