‘Maples became a reference to our group with regard to Cayman law as the firm has been able to support our legal department in different areas such as financial services regulation and corporate law. All of the different teams of the law firm with which we have worked with responded timely to our requests and queries and were promptly available when needed.’
‘Tim Dawson was a key person in the process of obtaining our license to operate a bank branch in the Cayman Islands. He was personally involved in all steps of the process promptly responding to all our queries.

It has been very positive to go through all this process with the support of a partner who has the complete view of our structure and activities.'

‘The Maples Regulatory team has a deep bench of senior attorneys who have a strong industry connections and experience, not only in regulatory issues but also in investment funds so have practical knowledge about fund operations. They work closely with organizations like Cayman Finance and AIMA making sure they are on the coal face of the developments in the industry, ensuring their voice is heard and that their information wherever possible is right from government. ’
‘The partners on the regulatory and compliance team make themselves to us, not just when issues are needed but also attending in-person board meetings to discuss upcoming issues, the practicalities of current changes we are navigating.

Hearing his thoughts on different viewpoints and experiences of others is incredibly helpful.’
