Can you tell us a little about your significant accomplishments over the last few years, as a team or by yourself?
I have successfully led many cross border complex transactions followed by timebound and smooth integration. I also have a setup of robust governance frameworks with profound focus on ESG resulting in enhanced governance ratings and recognitions.
Have any recent political, economic, or regulatory changes impacted your work? How are you dealing with this?
The recent regulatory changes relating to party transactions have led to cumbersome compliance requirements, specifically for an organisation of such a large scale, with multiple businesses, inherent adjacencies and multi geographical and dimensional organisation structure. To deal with this, a technical tool has been conceptualised which is getting developed and upon deployment, it would ensure optimum compliance of the new requirements.
How has the increasing consciousness of climate change and sustainability affected your company and the team’s priorities?
For our organisation, ESG is always at the forefront, whether it is a new commercial decision or a routine business practice. There are hard coded ESG targets, aligned to national and global requirements, and all business decisions are aligned with these targets. Our team is instrumental in adopting and implementing the governance practices which are well above the laws of land and intended to match, if not surpass, the global best practices.
