Financial Services

The high level of regulation in the financial services industry represents significant risk. Helping our clients recognise the issues and managing the impact on their business is a key driver for Corrs. We work with our clients to turn risk and reform to advantage.

A practical example of this is our involvement with major submissions and industry consultation associated to the Cooper Review, the Future of Financial Advice and personal property securities reforms. As the Commonwealth Government’s response unfolds, this work continues in terms of product design, rationalisation and merger advice.

We expect to see aggressive organic growth and substantial M&A activity particularly at the smaller end of the sector as the “survivors” consolidate to compete with the majors who have prospered in aftermath of the GFC.

Corrs’ dedicated national group of financial services, superannuation, insurance, funds management and investment advisers couple industry experience across many sectors with the benefit of having assisted a broad range of clients across the industry dealing with varied and complex issues.
