Afriland First Bank RDC has negative equity of $116.9 million four years after Paul Fokam Kammogne's group was pushed out by regulators.
Afriland First Bank, founded by Cameroonian billionaire Paul Fokam, has become the first Cameroonian lender to open in Central African Republic, targeting a largely unbanked market.
Paul Fokam Kammogne left Cameroon Bank in 1979, earned a PhD in Bordeaux, and built Afriland First Bank into a $3.6 billion institution to prove Africa could finance its own development without foreign banks.
