Orascom Construction Industries

About

Orascom Construction Industries is an Egyptian global engineering and construction contractor, focused primarily on infrastructure, industrial and high-end commercial projects for private clients in 25 countries across the Middle East, North Africa, US, and the Pacific Rim. The legal department at Orascom Construction Industries is led by Hussein Amin Marei, a proven leader with a 15-year track record of experience as corporate attorney. Under Marei’s guidance, the legal team handles legal, compliance and transactional work in Egypt, the Netherlands and the UAE.

Marei’s team has an organisational structure that differs somewhat from other in-house departments in North Africa, in the sense that each lawyer contributes to all work conducted by the legal function regardless of specialty. The team has been given credit for overseeing all transactional work of the company, which includes structuring and execution of M&A transactions, financing, sovereign investments and capital market deals. In addition, the team has impressed with the speed at which it reviews and drafts all construction and infrastructure contracts, as well as with its handling of commercial litigation and arbitration for the group.
