Let’s get down to business.
We aren’t for everyone. We offer fractal GC and strategic advisory services to growing financial services businesses that value strategic advice.
We unapologetically believe the right advice from the first meeting, supported by a deep understanding of your business, saves you time, money, and effort. That’s why we founded Rayne.
Sit back and relax. We’ve got your legal and compliance needs covered.
We’re great at what we do and only do what we’re great at.

LEGAL
An on-call, fully flexible, fractional GC arrangement to provide your business with the right advice and assistance when you need it and without excessive overheads.
COMPLIANCE
Compliance is critical. We offer a practical, timely, and tailored approach to compliance that empowers our clients to get on with business.
GOVERNANCE
We assist with all practical and advisory aspects of governance, including consultation, advice, and implementation.
RISK
We provide a qualitative and quantitative risk management service to help you identify key risk issues today and in the future.
"The financial services industry in Australia is heavily regulated, making start-up, growth, and new-to-market strategies challenging without investing significant expense. To me, this is unacceptable.
Australian financial services providers need cost-efficient and collaborative support to compete globally in this market. Innovation is needed, with legal and compliance playing an integrated role, aiding collaboration and minimising compliance costs. Rayne fills this gap in the market through experience and collaboration across legal, compliance, risk, and governance."
Some of our
common FAQs
Call or email us today for a consultation. We will meet you and your team in person to understand your desired outcomes, challenges, and existing business frameworks and then proceed from there.
Absolutely. We can identify what really needs doing and help you manage your overall legal spend. Our goal is to get the best outcomes cost-effectively.
Certainly. While many clients use us instead of a full-time GC, we are flexible in our approach and can also work alongside an existing in-house legal team as an additional resource to your business. We are experienced and work well with all stakeholders, whether that be Boards, Executives, existing legal teams, operational teams, or other external consultants.
Yes. We are happy to assist with product launches, new services, or a host of other one-off projects your financial services business may need help with. We also offer retainer services, which provide your business with ongoing legal and compliance support, like a General Counsel.
Financial services are heavily regulated in Australia, and achieving ongoing compliance can be complex. We can assist by developing or improving the compliance framework, and systems utilised in your business, from AFSL obligations to product/service-specific compliance, to meet regulators' expectations and support sustainable growth.
The beauty of the flexible and responsive support we provide our clients means that you can use us on a needs basis. One key point for us to ensure clients understand is that if they need us, we can be there, whether that is across all sectors of our service or only one. Our service method is flexible - you can engage us under retainer, for a project, or just for advice.
We're glad you asked. With all new client engagements, the first step is simply sitting down with your team to develop a detailed understanding of your business and what you are trying to achieve. Ultimately, we will provide you with a tailored scope with options to suit your desired outcomes. The scope can be project-based or a retainer.
