Africa-Press<\/a> – Zambia<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>It is such a delight to see Zambians playing at the World Stage. Today, President Hakainde Hichilema was welcomed to the World Bank and met by a fellow Zambian, Dr. Samuel Munzele Maimbo who is the World Bank\u2019s Director for Mobilization and Corporate Finance.<\/p>\n

Dr. Maimbo was promoted to this position last year, making him one of the World Bank\u2019s highest ranked officers leading a portfolio in charge of lending to developing countries. As Director, he is the highest ranked Zambian working in the World Bank.<\/p>\n

Prior to this appointment, he was Head of Financing for Development Unit & Senior Adviser, Office of the Managing Director & Chief Financial Officer at World Bank Group World Bank Group.<\/p>\n

A Rhodes Scholar, Dr. Maimbo holds a Ph.D. in Public Administration (Banking) from the University of Manchester, an MBA in Finance, (University of Nottingham), a BSc. in Accounting with Distinction (Copperbelt University, Zambia) and is a Fellow Chartered Certified Accountant (FCCA, UK). Prior to joining the World Bank, he worked at the Bank of Zambia and PWC.<\/p>\n

It must have been a delight for the President to meet a fellow Zambian at such a high level at the World Bank! Indeed, education is perhaps the single most important thing that ought to be on the priorities of all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
