African Fintech Founders, CEOs, etc: I have read some troubling accounts in the African fintech space. As an investor, I feel bad. This is not the way we will win the future. These demons must be cast out – fast. The virtues of honesty, decency and transparency are the only trajectories that will take everyone to the mountaintop.
Every fintech startup in Tekedia Capital with international exposure has access to a network of top US banking executives. These are my friends and associates; one is a Managing Director of a bank and heads a top US bank’s compliance unit. This bank has more than US$40 TRILLION under custody and administration. That is the highest level it could get.
To help African fintechs which are struggling to build a better compliance regime, Tekedia Capital is available to connect these compliance experts to speak and provide guidance. Just let us know, my team will schedule for them to speak with you (and will mentor you to build the right system based on US standards). There is a reason God has blessed me to know the right people, and if this is one way I can help, so be it.
