For about 3 years, I was Managing Director of Société Générale Cameroun, this flagship bank that has been operating in Cameroon since 1963. During this period, I was positively impressed by the work of my teams, thanks to which I am honoured today. Work, abnegation, team spirit, commitment, are some of the words that sum up my career in this great institution that substantially supports the economy of Cameroon and the Central African sub-region. I am particularly delighted to be leaving this position on a high note, knowing that the adventure has only just begun for me as Société Générale's Regional Director for Central and East Africa.
