Managing IP & Legal Risks in FinTech & Technology-Driven Financial Services

Introduction

‘Fintech’ is now a commonplace expression, but to manage ‘fintech’ successfully you need to understand the law which underpins the ‘tech’ element as well as your regulatory obligations relating to the ‘Fin’ element. Failure to do so could result in your business not owning valuable bespoke software which you have paid for, losing opportunities to control how your technology is used, losing access to valuable database rights, breaching copyright and database laws, breaching GDPR obligations, and being exposed to unnecessary financial and legal risks.

Databases are critical in software therefore, and this webinar addresses GDPR issues as well as intellectual property issues which typically arise in Fintech deals.

What You Will Learn

This webinar will cover the following:

• Common misunderstandings in IP licences
• Identify IP and GDPR risks
• Identify legal risks when using software, whether bespoke and proprietary, or connected to ‘open banking’ or other third-party software
• Minimise risks
• Maximise your investment in bespoke technology

This pre-recorded webinar will be available to view from Wednesday 13th May 2026
