  • Fighting Economic Crime - a Shared Responsibility!
    THIRTY-SEVENTH INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON ECONOMIC CRIME SUNDAY 1st SEPTEMBER - SUNDAY 8th SEPTEMBER 2019 JESUS COLLEGE, UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE Fighting economic crime - a shared responsibility! Centre of Development Studies The 37th Cambridge International Symposium on Economic Crime Fighting economic crime- a shared responsibility! The thirty-seventh international symposium on economic crime brings together, from across the globe, a unique level and depth of expertise to address one of the biggest threats facing the stability and development of all our economies. The overarching theme for the symposium is how we can better and more effectively work together in preventing, managing and combating the threat posed by economically motivated crime and abuse. The programme underlines that this is not just the responsibility of the authorities, but us all. These important and timely issues are considered in a practical, applied and relevant manner, by those who have real experience whether in law enforcement, regulation, compliance or simply protecting their own or another’s business. The symposium, albeit held in one of the world’s leading universities, is not a talking shop for those with vested interests or for that matter an academic gathering. We strive to offer a rich and deep analysis of the real issues and in particular threats to our institutions and economies presented by economic crime and abuse. Well over 700 experts from around the world will share their experience and knowledge with other participants drawn from policy makers, law enforcement, compliance, regulation, business and the professions. The programme is drawn up with the support of a number of agencies and organisations across the globe and the Organising Institutions and principal sponsors greatly value this international commitment.

  • Lateral Partner Moves in London January
    Lateral Partner Moves in London January - February 2021 Welcome to the latest round-up of lateral partner moves in the legal market from Edwards Gibson; where we look back at announced partner-level recruitment activity in London over the past two months and give you a ‘who’s moved where’ update. There were 90 partner hires in the first two months of 2021 which, although 6% down on the 5-year statistical average for the same period, is actually 13% up on last year (80). Indeed, as we have previously discussed, Big Law has, with some exceptions, so far managed to remain remarkably unscathed by the largest economic contraction the UK has ever seen. No fewer than six firms took on three or more partners, with Hogan Lovells nabbing five: a four- partner litigation team (two laterals and two promotion hires) from Debevoise & Plimpton and the co-head of corporate - Patrick Sarch - from White & Case. Top partner recruiters in London January – February 2021 Hogan Lovells 5 Addleshaw Goddard 3 Bracewell 3 Harcus Parker 3 Paul Hastings 3 Squire Patton Boggs 3 Given the inverse relationship between economic activity and commercial disputes, it is unsurprising that nearly a third of all hires were disputes lawyers and 12% were restructuring/ insolvency specialists, with three firms - Armstrong Teasdale, McDermott Will & Emery and Simpson Thacher – launching completely new practices in that space. Firms hiring laterals whose practices were primarily restructuring or insolvency related Armstrong Teasdale (formerly Kerman & Co) Dechert Edwin Coe Faegre Drinker Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson Goodwin Procter Latham & Watkins McDermott Will & Emery (hired a two-partner team) Simpson Thacher & Bartlett (hired two partners from separate firms) Although demand for restructuring and insolvency specialists clearly remains very high, many lawyers report that work levels remain eerily quiet due to governments across Europe pumping vast amounts of cash into the system to counter a COVID- lockdown induced economic collapse.
