Norton Rose Fulbright’s US Regulatory Intelligence platform to become independent resource for the financial services industry

Norton Rose Fulbright today announced that its US Regulatory Intelligence platform-a market-leading newsletter and resource providing timely analysis and guidance on regulatory developments affecting the financial services industry-will become an independent platform.

This evolution reflects Norton Rose Fulbright's commitment to its clients and to advancing access to high-quality regulatory intelligence across the financial services industry. The firm recognizes that an independent platform is best positioned to fulfill these commitments at scale. By including more voices and broadening its reach, the platform will incorporate perspectives from professionals throughout the community, including additional legal analysis from outside sources, making it a richer and more authoritative resource for all those navigating the demands of financial regulation in the United States.

"Norton Rose Fulbright's Financial Services practice is built on a simple principle: our clients receive sophisticated legal and regulatory counsel delivered by lawyers with deep experience and an unrelenting focus on their needs," said Jeff Cody, Norton Rose Fulbright's Global and US Managing Partner. "The regulatory environment our clients navigate today is more complex and consequential than ever, and our commitment to meeting that challenge has never been stronger. The independence of this platform serves our clients and reflects the quality and ambition that has always defined our practices."

The US Regulatory Intelligence platform is an essential tool for financial institutions, asset managers, broker-dealers and their advisors navigating the complex and rapidly evolving landscape of US financial regulation. As an independent resource, the platform will expand its editorial scope, deepen its policy coverage and welcome contributions from leading practitioners across multiple sectors in the industry, enabling a richer and more comprehensive perspective on regulatory matters of critical importance.

"This is an exciting development for everyone who relies on insights from US Regulatory Intelligence. As an independent platform, we can draw on perspectives from leaders across the financial services community," said Steve Lofchie, US Regulatory Intelligence founder and partner in Norton Rose Fulbright's Financial Services practice. "We are also integrating AI capabilities directly into the platform's extensive financial services database-a resource that has been carefully curated, purpose-built and continuously developed over the past 10 years-which will allow users to interrogate and extract insight from that body of knowledge in ways that were previously unimaginable. My commitment to Norton Rose Fulbright and our clients remains firm. I am enormously proud of what we have built together here."

Steve continues to advise financial institutions, broker-dealers, asset managers, and other market participants on the full range of securities, derivatives and financial regulatory matters.

"The US Regulatory Intelligence platform appears to be a remarkable resource, and Steve's vision and dedication have made it what it is today," said Andrew Lom, Norton Rose Fulbright's US Head of Financial Services. We fully support its transition to independence, which maximizes its impact and utility for the financial services industry at large and our clients in particular. This evolution reflects our firm's commitment to those navigating the regulatory demands of financial markets."
