During his tenure, he represented investment companies, investment advisers and broker-dealers on a wide range of regulatory and compliance matters arising under federal and state securities laws. As counsel at Drinker, Swirsky represented clients on a diverse range of investment company matters, with a specialty in issues related to money market funds operated in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
