World Bank Appoints Sandie Okoro Senior Vice President And General Counsel by BeautifulMind2(op):
World Bank Group President Jim Yong Kim today announced the appointment of Sandie Okoro as World Bank Group Senior Vice President and General Counsel.
Sandie Okoro is a highly regarded thought leader with a strong track record of developing new legal approaches in the field of international finance,” said Kim. “Her experience managing legal and financial risks at global financial institutions will make her a great asset for the Bank Group and our Board.”
Okoro is currently the Global General Counsel for HSBC Global Asset Management. She is also Deputy General Counsel of HSBC Retail Banking and Wealth Management and a member of the Executive Management Committee of HSBC Global Asset Management.

Before joining HSBC, Okoro was Global General Counsel at Barings. She has also been appointed to the Management Board and Panel of Experts of The Hague-based Panel of Recognized International Market Experts in Finance, which assists with the settlement of international disputes of complex financial transactions. Okoro played a leadership role during the financial crisis particularly in respect to the mitigation of counterparty risk exposure.
Okoro has received several accolades for her work and volunteer efforts. Most recently, in July 2016, she was named as one of the 100 Women to Watch by the Female FTSE Board. Sandie is named in The Powerlist 2019 as the fifth most influential and powerful black person in Britain. As World Bank Group Senior Vice President and General Counsel, Okoro will be the principal adviser and spokesperson on all legal matters. She will also serve as the legal adviser to the Board, management, the Inspection Panel, and the CEO of the Global Environmental Facility Program. Okoro will lead the World Bank’s Legal Vice Presidency, which is responsible for all legal services provided to internal and external clients.

The international bodies keep appointing the 5%ers and keep making progress, while osama buhari says only his fellow headslammers merit such appointments in the zoo.
We go see who go suffer am pass.

One great thing about we Igbos is that no matter how much you try to suppress us, God will always give us a greater alternative.

This is the fear of Almajiris and their envious counterparts, they are scared of what we will become as a nation when biafra is granted, but then, God will always pave ways for us internationally.

God bless Igbo nation.

God bless Ala umu Biafra.

God Bless lovers of Biafra.

Unapologetically and undiluted Igbos world wide, Mma mma nu ooo

Congrats to her. smiley

There's nothing to glory in this appointment. Unlike NOI and Arunma Oteh, Sandie Okoro is more British than Nigerian.

Congratulations are in order though.
