Building a formidable executive team

Central to successful risk management is the strength in depth of individuals who form the executive team responsible for the development of underlying investments. These individuals are drawn from diverse backgrounds but all contribute to a comprehensive risk management team.

We have a robust operational executive team in Malawi, including:

•
Justin Malewezi, former Finance Minister and Vice President of Malawi
•
Lloyd Barker, son of a major farming family in Malawi and a highly talented agronomist and horticulturalist
 
Our exec team in Malawi is supported by a highly experienced financial and political team in the UK, including:
• Nic Clavel, CEO of Scipion Capital with over 20 years' experience of trade finance in Africa
• Benny Dembitzer, with experience in operating for the World Bank and others in over 30 African countries and a member of the organisation that secured the Nobel Peace prize for nuclear disarmament
• Robin Farrell, Managing Partner of ARCH Financial Products LLP, with an executive background in risk management for some of the world’s largest investment banks
• Jon Maguire, CEO of cru Investment Management and founder of Africa Invest
