Financial Times Award for Benedikt Wolfers

The Financial Times has honored the most influential Top 20 Practitioners from the USA, Europe, and Asia over the past 20 years at the FT Innovative Lawyers 20 Years Summit 2025 in London. Among them is Benedikt Wolfers, founding partner of pswp.

The FT on the background and selection process:

„Lawyers such as Benedikt Wolfers designed many of the structures behind the financial bailouts and stabilisation in their respective jurisdictions. This period of crisis enabled lawyers to do some of the best work of their careers … The individuals were selected from close to 1,000 people featured in the Financial Times Innovative Lawyers reports over the past 20 years”

This recognition not only honors Benedikt. It reflects a core commitment that defines pswp: to support and protect companies and the state during times of transformation, disruption, crisis and key legal proceedings.
