Legal team size: 13
Have you had any experiences during your legal career that stand out as particularly unique or interesting?
The opportunities to undertake short term assignments across various African markets at different points in my career stand out for me. The exposure to how different laws and legal regimes handle banking and finance aspects, including retail banking, corporate and investment banking and development finance, has greatly enriched my perspective as a legal advisor and trusted business partner.
How are you bringing the legal department closer to your business colleagues?
We ensure our legal support addresses business matters in a practical way. We simplify processes, provide handy references, and have regular engagements to find out how the business is performing and how our legal support can enable continued progress on their commercial goals.
