Ropes & Gray has been named the most innovative private capital law firm at the FT Innovative Lawyers Awards Europe 2024 for its groundbreaking risk and compliance offering for private fund clients. The offering is delivered by a multi-disciplinary team across anti-corruption and international risk, antitrust, data, and ESG, in partnership with the firm’s R&G Insights Lab – a differentiated solution for corporate governance and risk in complex business environments, which combines top tier legal analysis with the industry's first-ever data analytics and behavioral science offering.
In its reporting of the offering, which helps private funds manage regulatory risks and obligations across their investment portfolios, the Financial Times said:
“One of the key elements of the firm’s innovation is that it involves comprehensive data analytics, is multi-disciplinary — including use of behavioural science — and focuses on prevention rather than cure. It is a prime example of how legal advice is changing through the convergence of technology, data and expertise in other disciplines.”
Ropes & Gray was also highly commended in the ‘Practice of law’ category for sustainability and ESG for its ‘Green Tech Legal Collaborative’ in partnership with Bloomberg, which provides pro bono legal support to start-ups at Imperial College London that are committed to addressing climate change.
