A brief word about Finnick, but mostly about what Finnick can do for you.

Why Finnick?

FinTech developments have been coming thick and fast in recent years. Besides rapid technological developments, this is also due to new European financial regulatory legislation.

This means that a thorough knowledge of financial regulatory legislation is imperative for a FinTech company. And that’s when it’s time to call in Finnick.

With years of legal knowledge and experience in financial enterprises and FinTech companies under our belt, Finnick is proud to call itself expert in this field.

Finnick is not alone in this, of course, but combined with an entrepreneurial and result-oriented approach, Finnick is able to offer concrete and to-the-point solutions. Both for large projects and integrations, as well as for smaller legal issues.

Finnick is founded by Arie van den Bergen.

Lawyer | Owner

After studying Dutch law in Groningen, Arie completed various Grotius postgraduates and the De Baak’s High Performance Leadership training programme.

Arie van den Bergen has years of experience as a lawyer and legal counsel at various financial institutions (Deutsche Bank, ING and Aegon Bank/Knab). In recent years, he has been closely involved in processes to implement financial laws and regulations. As legal counsel, he contributed to Knab’s development as an online bank and provided legal assistance for product innovations and development.

Arie has been involved in funding transactions such as investments in mortgages, consumer loans, and (foreign) peer-to-peer lending platforms. He has in-depth knowledge of how financial institutions are organised and is a team player who can work well with different departments within the financial organisation.

‘I worked with Arie on setting up Knab Crowdfunding. What I like about Arie is that he brainstorms with the business and uses language that the reader can understand. I also like the way he structures contracts. Arie stands out on these points among the lawyers I have met. But that doesn’t mean Arie hesitates to speak up; he is a real professional who knows his field. And a friendly colleague with whom you can also enjoy a drink.’
