Ali E. Basli is qualified as a solicitor in England & Wales and as a lawyer in Türkiye. Those qualifications inform the advisory work. BSL Private Advisory does not undertake reserved legal activities under the Legal Services Act 2007. Where reserved, jurisdiction-specific or regulated legal work is required, the client must instruct an appropriately authorised independent lawyer.

BSL Private Advisory is not a bank, trustee, investment manager or tax adviser. It does not recommend financial products, guarantee account opening or make decisions for any institution. Banking and other regulated services are provided on the relevant provider’s own terms and subject to its independent due diligence.
