Banks and other major players in the financial market, such as insurers and pension funds, are regulated by a number of regulatory bodies in the Netherlands. This regulation focuses on the one hand on the business operations of the financial institution itself, and on the other hand on the products of that financial institution.

CMS Derks Star Busmann assists financial institutions on matters of regulatory law, such as by helping with licence applications and answering questions on licensing, as well as maintaining contacts with the regulatory body in the case of any disputes that may arise. Naturally all this is done with the business of the financial institution in mind, since it is all about the product.

We also have wide experience in advising banks and other financial institutions on the various financing structures they offer. Businesses too may consult us for advice on a range of other issues such as leasing.

Whenever needed, we can provide you with cross-border services through the international CMS organisation.
