Diego Manzetti acts as the lead lawyer for the Italian arm of global insurance group AIG, and describes a specialised, quick to act and extremely knowledgeable team that cover both the legal and business aspects of the market that may potentially threaten the company. Manzetti explains how the team’s culture is centred on ‘respect and trust, providing exceptional support and sharing experience and expertise in addition to providing opportunities to develop each member’s professional skills’ showing not only their commitment to the AIG business but to improving and growing together as lawyers. Ongoing training programs to achieve this plus internal recognition methods that reward and recognise valuable individual contributions to the team are exemplars of this approach, as is the concept of innovation and forward-thinking. Despite an environment that poses several challenges, key to the internal function of the team is the innovative management of its workload, Manzetti explains the introduction of a ‘new legal intake tool’ that helps manage instructions more efficiently. Undertaking a restructure of the team with specialisation in mind; Manzetti explains how the team members ‘cover different areas of expertise’ which currently extend to dealing with matters relating to the acquisition of a minority shareholding in an insurance mediation business with assistance from a law firm on specific aspects. Even in the face of a landscape subject to ‘huge legislative changes and the implementation of the new code of public contract’ in addition to a bigger workload – Manzetti has also taken the role of head of legal South Europe and MENA, overviewing over 15 countries and an additional 14 lawyers based in different locations – the AIG Italian legal team is a shining example of a group of well-organised and adept legal professionals able to succeed in spite of a chaotic insurance market.
