Testimonial

"I advise firms on a range of contentious and non-contentious regulatory matters, helping our clients to navigate complex challenges and uncertainty with commerciality, clarity and calmness."

Overview

Jankee has significant experience of advising retail and investment banks, wealth management firms and asset managers on a range of contentious and non-contentious financial regulatory matters.

Jankee’s contentious regulatory experiences includes advising financial services firms in relation to FCA enforcement investigations and supervisory interventions, such as section 166 skilled persons’ reviews, voluntary requirements, and attestations. Additionally, Jankee assists clients with managing internal investigations and complaints, including those referred to the Financial Ombudsman Service.

Jankee’s non-contentious experience includes advising a range of firms across the retail and wholesale financial services sectors on new and ongoing regulatory requirements, including the EU’s CRD VI, the FCA’s Consumer Duty, the Senior Managers and Certification Regime (SMCR), governance and controls frameworks, financial promotions restrictions and licensing requirements. She has also provided training on the Consumer Duty and the FCA's evolving approach to supervision to trade associations, including the Investment Association and UK Finance.

In 2019, Jankee undertook a nine-month secondment to the FCA’s Enforcement and Market Oversight Division, during which she was involved in referring firms to Enforcement and worked as the lead investigator on several FCA investigations into firms and individuals.
