Paris partner Hugues Bouchetemble's article "Réforme du régime des intermédiaires en opérations de banque et en services de paiement - Des difficultés de légiférer" appeared in the Feb.10, 2017 issue of the French publication Banque & Droit. The article examines the reform of intermediaries regime on banking operations and payment services. Mr. Bouchetemble also examines how the introduction of the status of property loans in French law, established by Directive on Feb 2014, weakens the existing statute of banking intermediaries.
