We understand all aspects of the “tech” in FinTech and the technologies that support and underlie the FinTech industry. We have a comprehensive understanding of financial products and market infrastructure and how new and disruptive technologies would fit in. Our lawyers' extensive knowledge and hands-on experience in the financial services industry benefit our clients in achieving a successful outcome in a shorter time frame, mitigating risk, and meeting their objectives through a pragmatic approach.

We assist our clients in agreements related to the licensing, sourcing and distribution of technologies such as deployed or hosted software, database tools and analytics for financial institutions, trading platforms, back-office, customer-facing digital infrastructure, data management tools, low-latency data feeds, market data and alternative data. In addition, we are well versed in issues that are uniquely implicated in financial technology companies, such as the protection of algorithmic trading strategies, derived financial data, and the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) in finance.
 
We advise FinTech vendors on developing new revenue lines by utilizing technology and data effectively, and we help them protect and commercialize their data and technology by structuring, drafting, and negotiating robust and effective licensing agreements and distribution programs.
