Andrew Marra opens a new window
Senior Associate
I am a Senior Associate in Fox Williams' Financial Services team, specialising in contentious FS regulatory and white-collar crime matters. With extensive experience from my previous roles as a lawyer at the Serious Fraud Office and in the Financial Conduct Authority’s Enforcement and Market Oversight division, I bring a wealth of expertise to every case”
Andrew joined the firm in September 2022, after spending five years as an investigative lawyer in the FCA’s Enforcement & Market Oversight division. During his time at the FCA, Andrew worked on and led several regulatory investigations, including a challenging, high-priority investigation into a reinsurance broker for financial crime failings.
Prior to his work at the FCA, Andrew served as an investigative lawyer at the SFO for two years. There, he contributed to numerous high-profile criminal investigations, including one of the SFO’s LIBOR investigations and complex investment fraud cases.
Andrew has significant experience in conducting regulatory, serious fraud, and financial crime investigations across the full investigative lifecycle. He brings invaluable insight into how investigations at the FCA, PRA, and SFO operate, and he assists clients in navigating enforcement actions, prosecutions, and supervisory interventions. Andrew also specialises in advising on issues such as bribery and corruption, fraud, market misconduct, financial misstatements, systems and controls failures, and money laundering compliance.
Additionally, Andrew advises clients (both subjects and witnesses) on complex investigations outside the regulated sector, such as corporate investigations. He participated in one of the independent investigations at the CBI concerning historic allegations of criminality and sexual misconduct, including leading many of the interviews.
Since joining the firm, Andrew has built upon the deep experience he gained at the FCA and SFO. He regularly advises corporate and individual clients on contentious regulatory and white-collar crime matters.
