Commenting on the importance of Coakley's appointment to the firm, particularly during the current climate, Husam Hourani, Head of the firm's Banking & Finance practice said, "As global financial markets show signs of stabilising, we believe that the period ahead presents both opportunities and new challenges for our clients."
"The challenges ahead will include being prepared for more intensive supervision and planning for the impact of changes which will flow from regulatory reforms. Jane's extensive experience will enhance the capability of our professionals to sort through quickly the implications of complex and interconnected risks and to provide effective and practical assistance," Husam added.
Coakley played a pivotal role as a Managing Director in the formative years of the Dubai Financial Services Authority ("DFSA") which is now well established in the DIFC as a credible international regulator.
Coakley said, "I am delighted to be working with Al Tamimi & Company and I hope to bring new perspectives as well as my experience to the firm's already established practice. I look forward to working with the Banking and Finance team which advises on the wide range of legal and regulatory issues which our clients face today."
Al Tamimi & Company assist and advise on both global and local regulatory developments. Their track record includes advice and assistance with applications for licensing, expanding the scope of existing licenses and ongoing DFSA regulatory compliance issues.
