Head of legal deparment | Centrais Eletricas Brasileiras – Eletrobras

What are the most significant cases or transactions that your legal team has recently been involved in?

In the past year, among the relevant operations we had, a highlight was the incorporation of the subsidiary Furnas by the holding company, which was quite complex.

What would you say are the unique qualities required to be successful as an in-house lawyer in your industry?

In my opinion, the main characteristics are high technical knowledge, as well as the ability to communicate effectively and to build a high-quality team while keeping them engaged in the company’s projects and challenges

How have you fostered a closer collaboration between the legal department and your business counterparts?

Our legal team must work in constant collaboration and dialogue with the technical areas of Eletrobras, seeking to present quick and efficient solutions for the problems that arise in the company’s routine. We understand that this effort adds value to the company.
