In the recent edition of the Law360 Expert Analysis ‘Banking Brief,’ Gunster’s Sha’Ron James shares notable changes impacting Florida’s financial services sector in the third quarter of 2024.
These developments include H.B. 989, which expands the Fair Access to Banking Law while clarifying “unsafe and unsound practices” and augmenting reporting obligations that financial institutions must comply with. James also analyzes the proposed creation of the state-run Sunshine Freedom Bank, which would establish state control over state funds, instead of having those funds managed privately.
With extensive experience in both the public and private sectors, insurance law and regulatory matters, Sha`Ron James practices at the intersection of government affairs and advocacy, insurance law and regulation, and policy development and execution. She represents domestic and international insurance companies and insurance-related entities throughout Florida, before the Florida Legislature, Office of Insurance Regulation, and other State Agencies.
