"A client mentioned that ‘Lisanne Haarman was responsive, thorough, and very helpful. She understood the operational model of the client, a complex and novel platform for which there is little regulatory guidance. She clearly outlined potential regulatory treatment of a securities platform that did not fit neatly into existing regulatory regimes'."Legal 500, Banking & Finance: Financial services Regulatory (2023 Edition) -
