Chris Croft

Senior Consultant

Chris is a solicitor and senior executive with deep expertise in the financial services sector, underpinned by a wealth of practical knowledge accumulated over a highly successful career spanning nearly four decades.

Most recently serving as a director of a building society, where his roles included General Counsel and the Senior Management Function for Compliance, Chris has profound, hands-on experience of dual FCA and PRA-regulated businesses.

He specialises in regulatory issues and the operational and business requirements of organisations in the financial services sector. Most recently, Chris played a key role in overseeing the implementation of the PRA and FCA operational resilience requirements and building the plan to implement the new Consumer Duty regime.

Chris was previously the head of the corporate department of a niche City shipping and insurance law firm. He has also served in many top-level managerial and executive roles within the legal and financial services sectors and has become a go-to expert for companies, LLPs, senior executives and LLP members alike, who consult him on an array of issues that sit within the intersection of corporate law and employment law: from proposed terms of employment and partnership, and termination of these arrangements, to the rights and obligations linked to incentive packages with equity elements and under LLP deeds.

Chris has also advised a wide-ranging clientele on a variety of business-critical IT and outsourcing contracts, as well as on investments in various business ventures, including an online start-up.
