Our services

Banking and payments systems law

We regularly advise clients on banker and customer law and on payments systems matters such as cheques, credit and debit cards (including card scheme rules), and electronic funds transfers.

Retail credit and finance broking

We are familiar with the national consumer credit scheme. We can advise on broker disclosure obligations, origination agreements and broker liability.

Prudential standards

Most of our financial institution clients are prudentially regulated by APRA. We assist them on the legal aspects of compliance with APRA prudential standards. We have particular expertise on the requirements imposed by the standards on directors and management of regulated entities.

Marketing and competition

We are experienced in reviewing advertising and marketing material, including online content, to ensure compliance. We can also advise on trade promotions and competitions, loyalty and reward schemes, and other marketing initiatives.
