Hakeem Belo-Osagie brings an unusual combination of deep operating experience across regulated industries like oil, telecoms, and banking—including his transformation of United Bank for Africa from near-bankruptcy to a major pan-African institution—with his role as a Harvard Business School professor who teaches about African markets. Through his family office Metis Capital Partners, he takes a policy-and-regulation-first approach to investing that systematically integrates political economy analysis, while also serving as a mentor and educator to the next generation of African entrepreneurs and leaders.
