Acting for a Swiss financial institution against FINMA (including in appeals proceedings before the Swiss Federal Administrative Court) concerning the scope of legal aid granted to another governmental agency.
Regulatory Litigation
We are frequently involved in regulatory litigation and represent our clients vis-à-vis the various Swiss federal agencies such as the Financial Markets Supervisory Authority (FINMA), the Federal Department of Finance (FDF), the State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO), the State Secretariat for Migration (SEM) or the Federal Tax Administration (FTA). This spans from the representation of our clients in discussions and efforts to a mutually acceptable resolution of the matters (such as the issuance of licenses, rulings and negative clearances) to acting in appeals filed against regulatory decisions before the Swiss Federal Administrative Court and the Swiss Federal Tribunal.
