PLC as Director for Strategic Initiatives. Tintra's core mission is
to accelerate financial inclusion in emerging markets by leveraging
the predictive capabilities of artificial intelligence to remove
human bias and prejudice in banking decisions.
The much improved and fairer access to finance that this
approach brings will open doors to a world of development
possibilities for individuals, communities and countries in the
emerging markets. That is why I am delighted to join Tintra.
Working within Tintra's dynamic and innovative team, my immediate
priority is to lead the creation of the group's business
development and market penetration strategy in Africa ."
Richard Shearer, Tintra's CEO, said, "The first time we met it
quickly became evident to me that Constantine Chikosi's textured
knowledge of parts of the world I know rather well was so many
levels above my own that it opened up a new frame of possibilities
and solutions in my thinking.
I am humbled by the fact that our vision is shared by someone
with such vast experience of being able to turn vision into reality
through smart strategy and deliverable tactics.
As we move from vision and philosophy into our execution phase I
am supremely comfortable that our Africa strategy will be equal to
our vision driven by the depth of experience Constantine brings to
this new role.
We continue to drive solutions that deal with the aims and
intents set out by governments, regional and bodies international
bodies such as the IMF and World Bank.
I welcome Constantine to Tintra and I very much look forward to
the journey together as we use Artificial Intelligence to drive
Real Change."
