Global law firm Ashurst announces the appointment of Fiona Ghosh as a partner in the London corporate practice, in a further boost to the Digital Economy team, the strategic alliance and joint venture offering, as well as the firm's global fintech platform.
With over 25 years of experience, Fiona is globally recognised for her specialisation in payments, financial services, and strategic alliances. Her practice centres on navigating clients through significant disruption, business transformation, and strategic risk management at the crossroads of regulation and technology. Fiona brings strong experience in advising clients across diverse sectors such as financial services, retail, and automotive, particularly in multi-jurisdictional strategic alliances, joint ventures, and high-value commercial contracts.
"We're delighted to welcome Fiona to Ashurst", said Jason Radford, global head of corporate. "Her arrival is a significant boost to our payments and technology capabilities and timely given the continuing market shift towards global digital commerce. Fiona also adds significantly to our cross-border, strategic alliance and joint venture offering."
Amanda Ludlow, global co-head of digital economy, added: "Supporting clients looking to invest in alternative payment solutions and technology as the market continues to accelerate with the proliferation of digital-first economies is of key strategic importance for Ashurst. Fiona's support and expertise will therefore be crucial - her sectoral and product focus complements our existing offering and I have no doubt that, alongside London partner David Futter, she will help us to successfully implement even more digital transformation projects for our clients. Following the recent additions of partners Nicholas Quoy, Alexander Duisberg and Sunny Kumar, Fiona's hire is a yet another exciting step in the development of our Digital Economy footprint across Europe and globally."
Fiona commented: "I'm excited to be joining Ashurst and the thriving Digital Economy team. The strategic process of transforming businesses has never been more important and I'm looking forward to leveraging Ashurst's global platform in corporate and finance to help our clients continue to go from strength-to-strength."
Fiona joins from EY, prior to which she was head of fintech at Addleshaw Goddard.
