Simultaneously, the managing director Ferdinand Ngon and his team continue to develop the group. According to Africa Business+ sources, they have devoted much of 2022 to acquisition project. This is an external growth operation in line with the group’s networking strategy, which has targeted an establishment located in a French-speaking jurisdiction in which Orabank is not yet present.
