Ivy Ngana

Chief legal and regulatory affairs officer | Telekom Kenya

About

Ivy Ngana has impressive credentials in both telecommunications and insurance, with past roles including Jubilee Holdings’ legal head and Airtel Networks Kenya’s legal manager. Currently heading all legal, regulatory and company secretarial support at Telkom Kenya – Orange, Kenya’s sole landline provider, she has successfully streamlined operations, improving both efficiency and results.

According to sources, she particularly excels in her handling major transactions and disputes. ‘Many people believe lawyers complicate transactions’, Ngana says. ‘Hence l try to support the commercial departments in a way that l ensure the company is not unduly exposed, but at the same time l don’t slow down the process with unnecessary legal bottlenecks’. When it comes to external counsel, she says firms should sometimes focus more on alternative dispute resolution before issuing proceedings.
