BVI Law Firm Expands Regulatory Group

British Virgin Islands-headquartered law firm Harneys has hired
Aki Corsoni-Husain into its Regulatory Group from the financial
markets and regulatory group of Denton Wilde Sapte in
London. At DWS he advised on a wide range of financial regulatory
issues including the trading of securities and derivative
products, anti-money laundering regulations and investment
management arrangements.
Ross Munro, Harneys' BVI head of investment funds and regulatory practice, said: "We have been advising clients on the BVI's recently amended anti-money laundering regulation. We are also currently reviewing the draft of the long-awaited Regulatory Code and will be making submissions to the Financial Services Commission. Aki's input in this process will be of great value."
Mr Corsoni-Husain’s hire follows that of fellow regulatory lawyer
Jennifer Deacon, who joined the group from
London barristers’ chambers
5 Fountain Court earlier this year.
