About Kara A. Kuchar

I am a partner in the Banking & Financial Institutions Practice Group in the New York office of Kirkland & Ellis LLP. I advise leading fintech companies and private equity firms on transactional, regulatory and enforcement matters related to payments products and services, including e-commerce marketplaces, money transmitters, B2B payment solutions providers, rewards companies, prepaid card managers, payroll processors, digital wallet providers, cryptocurrency exchanges and emerging payment companies. I counsel on buy-now-pay-later offerings, merchant cash advances and commercial lending licensing matters. I regularly write and speak on payment topics, including in forums sponsored by the Money Transmitter Regulatory Association and the American Conference Institute.Disclaimer: This material may be considered attorney advertising under certain rules of professional conduct.
