BACKGROUND

Based in Abu Dhabi, Khinda Advisory is dedicated to serving companies and institutions managing high-stakes risk, growth and change. Founded by Philip S. Khinda – a renowned U.S. securities litigator, former SEC enforcement lawyer, Wall Street law firm partner and Morgan Stanley analyst – Khinda Advisory brings over 25 years of experience advising global institutions and asset management firms on regulatory risk, governance matters, corporate crises, capital markets issues and business strategy. He is a frequent public speaker on these topics, and his work and commentary have been covered widely by the press, including The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Financial Times, Reuters, and Bloomberg, among others.

To his clients, Philip is more than a strategic counselor; he is a competitive advantage and a bridge between two of the world's most influential political, business and regulatory hubs: Abu Dhabi and Washington, DC.

Few advisors operate seamlessly in both the United States and United Arab Emirates, and their respective regulatory landscapes and capital markets. Fewer still also have additional related experience in European matters. Khinda Advisory helps clients span them all.
