Alphonse Kadjo 2026 speakers

“I am a senior investment banker and advisor with over three decades of transaction experience across African commercial and investment banking, project finance and public-private partnerships. My career spans Vice President and Regional Director for West & Central Africa at Citigroup, Managing Director/CEO of Access Bank Sierra Leone, and Managing Director/CEO of United Bank for Africa in Burkina Faso, where I led the post-acquisition restructuring and turnaround of the bank and managed UBA’s acquisition of Banque Internationale du Burkina, earning Global Finance’s Best Emerging Markets Bank in Africa award. I have also advised the UNDP, the Global Environment Facility, with co-financing from the World Bank and the African Development Bank on renewable energy programmes across North, East, West and Central Africa.

Today I am Founder and CEO of PF&3P (Project Finance & Public-Private Partnership, Cote d’Ivoire) and Senior Investment Lead at Niofar Capital, where I structure and raise capital for a curated pipeline of African infrastructure, energy, mining-logistics and agro-industrial projects, spanning utility-scale solar and storage, inland waterway and port infrastructure, and export-oriented agro-processing.

At AFSIC 2026 I am looking to connect with equity investors, debt investors, DFIs, guarantee providers and EPC+F partners seeking bankable, sponsor-committed opportunities in Africa, from development-stage platforms to late-stage transactions approaching financial close.

I would be delighted to meet.”
