Linklaters has sent one of its top disputes partners on secondment to the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). 

Looking to shore up its contentious regulatory credentials, Linklaters disputes partner Gavin Lewis will be at the FCA for a six-month stint, where he will work alongside the organisation's head of enforcement, Mark Steward.

Formerly HSF head of Asia litigation, Lewis joined Linklaters in 2013, spending most of his time in Hong Kong advising on diverse commercial litigation matters as well as investigations initiated by Hong Kong's commercial crime authorities.
