Banking Expert Witness
(ABOUT MYSELF)
Banking Expert Witness is a consulting firm that provides litigation support and expert witness services to law firms, to banks and other financial institutions in banking-related matters. Services to law firms includes providing forensic research and analysis.
My ability and broad experience, gained from over 28 years of working in a wide array of banking institutions; commercial, wholesale and investment banks, has placed me in a preeminent position to provide expert witness services over an extremely broad and extensive area, which I have successfully achieved for a period of over 12 years.
Within my banking experience I traded all financial instruments, I ran dealing rooms and risk management teams, whilst holding the position of vice president and above, and I held the position of Treasurer for many banks.
I have provided training and lecturing on all banking instruments, their regulatory regimes, which encompasses fraud and breaches of governance, to regulators, the world’s banks, to central banks, and the legal profession for a period of over 20 years.
My focus is to use my knowledge and wide experience to assist and deliver a thorough, comprehensive outcome and result, for those who instruct me.
