Emanuel quote

Naast zijn rol als counsel bij Kennedy Van der Laan is Van Praag hoogleraar Financiële Technologie en Recht aan de Erasmus Universiteit Rotterdam, waar hij onderzoek doet naar big data, open banking (FIDA) en de betaalindustrie (PSD2). Verder behoren MiFID I en II en MiCAR (cryptoassets) tot zijn specifieke expertisegebieden. Daarnaast heeft hij bijzondere expertise op het gebied van cross border financiële dienstverlening. 

Emanuel is niet alleen academisch onderlegd, maar kent de financiële industrie van binnen. Hij was gedurende vier jaar inhouse jurist bij diverse financiële instellingen. Zijn adviezen en oplossingen zijn daarom altijd uitermate praktisch en houden rekening met de gevolgen voor de hele organisatie.
