About Laurence

As a 27-year-old business analyst at Ecobank Transnational Incorporated, I'm passionate about driving innovation in Africa's financial landscape. My expertise spans fintech development, consumer banking strategies, and policy frameworks that enable financial inclusion.

Born and raised in Togo, I bring a unique perspective to business analysis that combines deep understanding of African markets with global best practices. I'm particularly focused on how technology can bridge gaps in financial services and create opportunities for economic empowerment.

My work involves analyzing market trends, developing strategic recommendations, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to implement solutions that make banking more accessible and efficient across the continent.
