      Legal & Company Secretary

      Increasingly complex international and domestic legal systems have made legal officers a critical part of business growth

      As regulation intensifies across nearly every industry and technology continues to evolve faster than the law, Company Secretaries must defend their company from competitors and regulators, while leveraging the law to the full advantage of the business.

      Business growth is increasingly tied to technological advances, mergers and acquisitions, and international expansion. To facilitate growth and defend their business in an increasingly litigious environment, senior legal leaders have been moved out of the backroom to become strategic advisors to the CEO and board.
