Adedapo Adedayo Olagunju, originally a dreamer of becoming an astronaut, now finds himself shaping the future of JPMorgan’s merchant banking in Nigeria. With Oxford education under his belt and a distinguished career in banking, Olagunju is set to lead the new JPMorgan Merchant Bank Nigeria Limited, following the Central Bank of Nigeria’s (CBN) nod of approval.
The CBN’s decision to grant the proposed bank a provisional green light came alongside the nod for Olagunju to become its Managing Director.
