About

Henry Leong joined GE in 2005 as Asean regional counsel for corporate. He has since served as regional legal counsel for GE’s water and process technologies business covering Asia Pacific (including China and India), and general counsel for the power and water business across Asia Pacific. When GE completed its acquisition of Alstom in 2015, Henry Leong was asked to take over as general counsel for GE’s power services business in the region. ‘In my years supporting the Asia Pacific region’, says Henry Leong, ‘I have watched the organisation grow in size and people. My strategy has always been to regionalise as much as possible and that means to hire people and to build a team that is capable to handle, advise and take accountability for all decisions on issues affecting the region. I believe this has led to quicker decision making, ability to work more closely with the local stakeholders and to ensure better outcomes’. More recently, Henry Leong has turned his attention to the developments in the power generation business and the challenges the sector is facing. ‘The portfolio of products that our business offers has expanded greatly and we are now moving to the digital arena. The legal team has to be agile, continue to understand the new business and product dynamics, tailor our contracts accordingly, and be adept in responding to the new changes in the regulatory, compliance and risk profile’.
