Optimal Payments’ Elliott Wiseman Wins at European Counsel Awards 2015

Mar 06, 2015

LONDON (6 March 2015) -- Optimal Payments (LSE AIM: OPAY), a leading global online payment solutions provider, is pleased to announce that Elliott Wiseman, Optimal Payments’ General Counsel, has won the Regulatory (Financial Services) Individual Award at the European Counsel Awards 2015.  The winners were announced at a gala dinner and awards ceremony in London last night. 

The International Law Office, with the support of the Association of Corporate Counsel, conducted in-depth analysis of in-house lawyers and legal departments worldwide for its eighth annual European Counsel Awards. The European Counsel Awards received over 1,500 individual nominations from corporate counsel and law firm partners in the region in order to clearly identify those in-house counsels, both teams and individuals, who excel in their specific roles. The primary aim was to recognise lawyers for demonstrable achievements across the full spectrum of in-house responsibility, not simply those who have acted on high-profile transactions.

Elliott Wiseman said, “I am very pleased, personally and on behalf of Optimal Payments, to receive the recognition of my peers in the legal sector. The role of in-house counsel in Europe is becoming more widely recognised and these awards have played an important part in that process.” 

Elliott joined Optimal Payments in 2011 and is responsible for the legal and compliance functions, as well as being a member of the Executive Management team. Prior to joining Optimal Payments he served as Senior Legal Counsel at MoneyGram International, responsible for legal affairs in the Central/Northern European and Asia Pacific regions.
