London’s professional services firms shouldn’t just cut ties - they should talk about what went wrong
(Picture: Matt Writtle)A ring-round of London’s top law firms and consultants to ask about Russian clients yields some form of this answer: we are horrified by the war and worried about our people in the region. We’re reviewing our work with Russian clients and dropping at least a few.
What is lacking is any word on who. Lawyer-client privilege and non-disclosure clauses likely play a part. But you get a distinct sense City firms don’t want to talk about who exactly they were working with in the region.
