Summary
Harvard Business School (HBS) AMP Alumni, as Group Executive, Internal Audit & Management Services at Ecobank Transnational Incorporated (ETI), I oversee internal audit and management services across Ecobank’s pan-African network, ensuring governance, risk management, and operational excellence. My role focuses on leveraging financial risk management to support sustainable development across the continent. With over two decades of leadership experience in audit, financial services, risk management, and consulting, I have guided organizations through complex regulatory landscapes, turning risks into opportunities and driving growth. Previously, as CEO & Managing Partner of KPMG Afrique Centrale, I led Audit, Tax & Legal, and Advisory services across several African countries. Key roles included: - Regional Sector Leader for Financial Services, Francophone Sub-Saharan Africa (FRM) - Head of Advisory Services at KPMG Afrique Centrale - Global Services Lead Partner for the African Development Bank (AfDB) Having lived and worked in over 80 countries, I bring a global perspective with expertise in financial services, governance, and risk management. I am adept at navigating regulatory environments, implementing innovative strategies, and delivering value to clients. Key achievements: - Leading major business transformations in financial services and advisory sectors - Optimizing governance frameworks and operational efficiency - Aligning strategic goals with complex regulatory requirements My resilience extends beyond my career. As a passionate mountaineer, I have summited Mount Kilimanjaro (5,895 meters) and Mount Margherita (5,109 meters), reinforcing my ability to tackle challenges with focus and determination. I also founded Moranje Ubuntu, an NGO supporting disadvantaged communities through education and development initiatives. With expertise in corporate governance, risk management, and financial oversight, I provide strategic insights and operational expertise to organizations committed to sustainable growth. I believe that strong governance and innovative thinking are essential for success in today’s business landscape.
