The pan-African multilateral financial institution has also appointed Mr. Emmanuel Assiak as the chief investment officer for FEDA.
This was disclosed in a statement and signed by Afreximbank’s Media Manager, Amadou Sall, on Friday, in Abuja.

Additionally, she was CEO of a commercial bank in the DRC for two years, leading a financial turnaround by restoring its financial profitability.
In addition, under her leadership, the bank also became one of the selected few banks in sub-Saharan Africa to complete and obtain anti-money laundering (30,000) certification for combating money laundering and terrorist financing.
