Shipping law firm Clyde & Co and one of its former partners will face disciplinary hearings over alleged anti-money laundering failures over a four-year period.

The Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) said there was a case to answer for the company and Ed Mills-Webb, who was suspended by the company in early 2019 and put under investigation.

He resigned later that year and became a consultant at Preston Turnbull, a firm set up by a group of four former Clyde partners.
