Hywel is a partner based in our London office. Hywel heads the contentious financial services regulatory team in London, acting for banks, insurers, asset managers and other regulated firms. He advises clients on all aspects of their interactions with the FCA and PRA, from notifications through to Enforcement, and has led a wide variety of firms through complex regulatory, skilled person and internal investigations, securing optimal outcomes with an efficient use of time and resources. Hywel also advises on issues involving consumer redress which often accompany Enforcement investigations, with particular knowledge in complaints handling and matters involving the Financial Ombudsman Service. Hywel provides a strategic approach for managing high volume issues as well as technical advice on key individual cases. His experience includes managing cases where the FCA uses or threatens use of its redress power under section 404F(7) FSMA and restitution powers under section 384 FSMA. Hywel is also known for his governance work, advising a number of banks, insurers and asset managers on the implementation of the senior managers' regime and issues arising post-implementation from the focus on individual accountability, including attestations.
