Regulatory

Since 1994 South Africa has seen a substantial growth in legislation which has impacted numerous commercial sectors. In order to participate in these sectors, our clients need guidance in dealing with legislative, administrative and regulatory challenges. Increasing regulatory burden calls for specialists who have the necessary experience to address regulatory risk.

We have experts in constitutional, public and administrative law who can assist with strategic advice and have experience in working with the regulators in government, organs of state and public bodies.

Regulatory requirements are increasing worldwide and regulators' powers to impose criminal or quasi-criminal sanctions on businesses and senior managers are also increasing. DLA Piper has one of the largest specialist regulatory and government affairs groups of any global legal services organisation, with experts across the regulatory spectrum. Through our affiliation with DLA Piper, Cliffe Dekker Hofmeyr can help our clients by providing advice where transactions span many jurisdictions.
