The Widening Gulf: Navigating Divergent Financial Regulation in the US, EU, and UK

Financial regulation in the US, EU, and UK is moving in three different directions — and the gap is widening fast. For US institutions serving European clients, that divergence creates real compliance exposure, but also real opportunity for those who understand the terrain.

Join us for a practical, one-hour session designed for in-house counsel navigating this shifting landscape. We'll cut through the complexity and give you concrete guidance you can apply immediately.

What this session will cover:

• Working with European regulators — what to expect, and how to prepare
• Crypto and DeFi under MiCA — brick wall or red carpet? Where the real opportunities (and traps) lie
• Cross-border business, reassessed — what's still viable for deposit-taking, lending, and guarantees, and where the rules have tightened
• ICT and third-party service providers — the compliance obligations you can't afford to overlook

Walk away with a clear-eyed view of where the regulatory lines are moving — and practical strategies to stay ahead of them.
