About

Qatar National Bank has 128 people in its overall group legal team with 42 based in Egypt and 53 in Turkey. The head office in Qatar has a 17 strong team of which 14 are lawyers. The team has been led by the head of group legal, David O’Sullivan, since 2012. The team has been growing to include experienced international lawyers and junior Qatari lawyers to be based outside the head office in order to meet the bank’s geographical expansion. The legal department successfully handles the negotiations of multiple M&A transactions such as the acquisitions of Finansbank (Turkey), NSGB (Egypt) and a minority stake in Ecobank (Africa), all of which serve as part of a strategic geographical expansion for Qatar National Bank. According to the bank’s activities the team delivers in multiple jurisdictions leading negotiations on major transactions while also developing new products and funding structures. The team has gained an excellent reputation in the legal sphere with one law firm partner quoted praising the team as ‘very professional, and they run some of the more exciting lending and debt capital market deals in the region’.
