About

Ivania Oberti Naranjo is a member of the senior management team and director of business, compliance and legal affairs for Latin America at boutique insurer PVG, part of a multinational holdings group with interests in the US and Latin America. In addition to overseeing day-to-day legal matters she works closely with PVG’s senior management to design and implement new business structures across the region and to develop regulatory and compliance frameworks to assist in these markets. Naranjo is directly responsible for overseeing on-the-ground operations at PVG’s legal offices in Venezuela – its largest operation – and also manages a wider network of lawyers and other professionals spread throughout the region. Nominators recognised Naranjo’s ‘ability to coordinate a “virtual legal team” over a huge number of markets, each of which pose their own regulatory pressures and introduce very complex commercial considerations’.
