My name is Tai Fayose. I’m BII’s Head of Compliance, and Money Laundering Reporting Officer
What type of people thrive at BII?
At BII, I think you have to come with that sense of wanting to impart in a positive way. You have to have tenacity. You have to really think about what you are contributing to and why. You have to be driven.
I see BII as an organisation that just kind of exudes excellence.
What makes you proud to work at BII?
Being part of such a wonderful mission, you know, I originate from Nigeria, when I see some of the kind of issues we have from an infrastructure perspective. And I think actually I work for a company that can support, you know, for example, Nigeria that makes me proud, to know that I’m part of something that can have an impact, not only just where I originate from, but obviously broader than that. I think that that’s just phenomenal.
Working for a DFI is extremely rewarding in every sense of the word. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I think it’s a life experience that will stick with me and it will be stories that I will tell my grandchildren, in terms of being part of such a great legacy of 75 years and it continues to go beyond that and grow. And I think, yeah, that is just phenomenal.
