Practice Areas
Jocelin’s practice covers all aspects of commercial litigation and arbitration, with a particular emphasis on shipping, private international law, insurance and reinsurance, and banking (particularly derivatives).
Jocelin has appeared at all levels of the court system, including the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom and the Court of Appeal. His practice covers a wide range of commercial litigation, including charterparty and (re-)insurance disputes, as well as finance and banking, civil fraud and conflict of laws. Recently instructed on a large-scale action involving the alleged mis-selling of a US$1bn synthetic leveraged option on a fund of hedge funds, Jocelin was also instructed by the Defendants in the Djibouti v Boreh matter (a US$150m claim heard over ten weeks before the Commercial Court) and by the successful appellants in The “Alexandros T” (a landmark jurisdiction dispute under the Brussels Regulation that went before the Supreme Court).
Previously, Jocelin worked as an investment banker for several years in Paris, London, and latterly as an equity derivatives trader with Credit Suisse in New York, where he was responsible for the US single stock correlation book and the Nasdaq exotics book. Jocelin has extensive experience in capital markets instruments, including swaps (and associated ISDA agreements), derivatives (both vanilla and exotic), and structured products generally.
