    Communiqués de presse

    As a result of the joining of Zitiello Associati, a new department specialising in Regulatory has been created: a significant expansion of ADVANT Nctm’s vertical expertise in the area of banking, insurance and financial markets law, with a specific focus on regulatory advice to supervised entities and litigation.

    Milan, 1 July 2024 – ADVANT Nctm, ADVANT’s Italian firm, through Senior Partner Paolo Montironi, is pleased to announce the joining of Studio Zitiello Associati, a boutique law firm founded in 2006 that brings together professionals with expertise in banking, finance and insurance.

    At a strategic level, the transaction is part of ADVANT Nctm’s path of continuing growth, which will involve, upon the joining of Zitiello Associati, the creation of a specialised Regulatory department, leading the Firm to significantly strenghten its vertical expertise in the area of banking, insurance and financial markets law, with specific reference to regulatory advice to supervised entities and litigation.

    ADVANT Nctm is joined by a group of 22 professionals, namely: an Honorary Partner/Of Counsel, Luca Zitiello; three Partners, Fabio Coco, Francesco Mocci and Benedetta Musco Carbonaro (bringing the total number of partners to 77); three Counsels – Ludovica D’Ostuni, Paolo Franceso Bruno and Lorenzo Macchia – and Rossella Mariani as Of Counsel – in addition to fourteen associates.

    The new Regulatory department will include, in addition to Zitiello Associati’s team of professionals, Danilo Quattrocchi and Antonia Di Bella – who at ADVANT Nctm already deal with the regulatory compliance of entities operating in the banking, financial and insurance sectors – as well as the team of Emidio Cacciapuoti, operating in the asset management sector and assisting investment funds.

    Paolo Montironi, Senior Partner of ADVANT Nctm, commented: “We are thrilled to have made this important agreement with our colleagues at Zitiello Associati. The creation of a dedicated Regulatory department is instrumental in taking full advantage of all the opportunities offered by the evolving reference sector, characterised by an ever-increasing concentration of clients, requiring an increasing range of services, and by continuous regulatory changes, which involve a proliferation of interpretative actions by European and national regulators. Such context calls for a single interlocutor across multiple jurisdictions and all-round assistance with specialised and cross-cutting skills: something that ADVANT Nctm, with the team of professionals from Zitiello Associati, will be able to provide to clients”.

    Luca Zitiello, Managing Partner of Zitiello Associati, concluded: “Together with my partners, we are honoured to become part of the ADVANT Nctm family and look forward to sharing our important expertise in the field of banking, finance and insurance law, which has allowed us to achieve a distinctive and vertical position over the last twenty years in Italy. In a context like the current one, it is very important to always be able to find new opportunities for synergic growth and we are very happy to have been able to do so with a partner of the calibre of ADVANT Nctm”.
