ABOUT SEDA
SEDA Experts is a global financial services firm providing expert witness, consulting, and advisory services to law firms, financial institutions, and regulators navigating the world's most complex financial disputes. We are not a staffing agency for academics — we are a firm of former senior practitioners who built, traded, regulated, and litigated these markets

WHO WE ARE
WHY SEDA
Practitioners, not career experts — Our experts have held real front-office and regulatory roles, bringing first-hand market experience rather than purely academic or advisory perspectives.
Global, cross-regulatory credibility — We operate seamlessly across US, UK, Europe, and APAC matters, with experts who understand how markets and regulators interact across jurisdictions.
Integrated from strategy to testimony — We support matters from early case assessment through report writing, deposition, and trial, ensuring consistency, credibility, and no disconnect between theory and practice.
Founded by practitioners with decades of experience across leading global financial institutions, SEDA Experts was built on a simple premise: the most credible expert is one who has performed the role in practice.
SEDA’s experts include former senior executives from major international banks; former commissioners and senior officials from key financial regulators across the US, UK, Europe, and Asia-Pacific; and former partners at leading global consulting firms. They have run trading desks, led risk and compliance functions, supervised markets, and advised regulators — before becoming the experts who explain those markets in complex disputes.
SEDA is instructed in high-stakes matters before courts and tribunals worldwide — including federal and appellate courts, commercial courts, and leading international arbitration forums such as LCIA and ICC — by leading law firms and financial institutions that require the highest standard of expertise.
