Welcome back everyone! I'm excited to kick off this season of The Firm Analyst. In this episode, we discussed:
Travers and K&E losing top ESG partners to Freshfields and Paul Hastings respectively and how ESG talent is becoming increasingly sought after in the legal market;
the FCA bringing Cryptocurrencies within the financial promotions regulatory framework and warning against 146 firms within the first 24 hours of the regulation coming into force for alleged breaches; and
Apollo making a firm offer for Wagamama's parent company The Restaurant Group PLC, valuing its shares at £506 mn.I hope you enjoy this episode!
