How do you approach managing legal aspects during periods of instability or crisis to ensure the organisation’s resilience?

Our legal strategy is fully integrated into the organisation’s risk management, governance, and control framework, enabling the early identification of potential risks. We ensure that legal decisions not only address immediate business priorities and responses but also support long-term growth objectives.

Open and transparent communication with stakeholders, regulators, and clients is central to our approach, fostering trust and alignment across all areas of operation. We continuously adapt our legal strategy to evolving regulatory landscapes, market volatility, and geopolitical risks, ensuring agility and resilience in the face of change.

Through anticipation and scenario planning, we proactively prepare for potential legal challenges, enabling the organisation to respond swiftly and effectively to crises. This forward-looking approach ensures that we remain focused on sustainable growth, safeguarding both our business and its long-term value.

What is a cause, business or otherwise, that you are passionate about? Why is this?

Fostering long-term thinking within our organisations is essential to building resilience and lasting success. While achieving immediate objectives and meeting financial targets is important, true value arises when our actions are guided by a broader purpose—one that benefits not only our organisations but also our people, stakeholders, and the wider societies in which we operate.

By embedding sustainability and future-focused thinking into our daily activities, we shape a clear vision of who we want to be as organisations: the impact we aspire to make and the ways in which we can contribute positively to our communities and environment. In doing so, we ensure that today’s actions lay the groundwork for a future in which our organisations not only thrive economically but also create meaningful, lasting impact for generations to come.
