Managing Challenges of Commerciality (BEF)
17th April 2024
Our webinar “Managing the challenges of commerciality along with your legal duty to your employer” - Considering the complex tensions of commerciality versus your duty to being a full legal service provider to your employer took place on 17th April. Stephen Waud, CEO of the Business Enterprise Fund (BEF) spoke to us about what firms look for from their in-house counsel. He outlined how the BEF works and looked at specific requirements they expect from their lawyers such as being a strategic thinker (not just a lawyer), being a sales person for their company and providing practical advice. He also gave examples of challenging issues the BEF had recently faced regarding contracts and loan repayments etc. and how they were dealt with whilst adhering to the required legal duties and the FCA principles.
Thanks to Stephen for providing his insights and giving up his time to speak to us.
