Telecommunications giant MTN has appointed Yolanda Cuba group chief digital and fintech officer to lead the strategic expansion of the company’s financial services and digital solutions and transformation into a digital operator.
She joins MTN from Vodacom, where she served as the chief officer of strategy and mergers and acquisitions, and was previously Vodafone Ghana CEO. She was named Telecom CEO of the Year in 2018.
Cuba, who will join the executive committee reporting to group CEO Rob Shuter, will lead the progressive growth of MTN’s fintech and digital opportunities in Africa.
Her start date will be communicated in due course.
“Yolanda is a highly qualified and experienced executive, with a unique combination of operational telecommunications experience, as well as finance, financial services and digital skills.
“I am confident that Yolanda’s leadership will place us in good stead as we intensify our efforts to build a digital ecosystem and scale our fintech offering across our markets,” said Shuter in an update to shareholders.
