Tony Elumelu

Nigerian banker

In the history of enterprise, Tony Elumelu is one of the names that keeps returning.

The record lists Tony Elumelu as Nigerian banker.

Tony Elumelu was born at Jos in 1963. His recorded nationality is Nigeria. He was educated at Harvard Business School and Harvard University.

Post-war business was mass-market and increasingly multinational, managed by professionals rather than owners.

He worked as economist, banker and philanthropist.

Business reputations are unusually sensitive to the decade in which they were made.

That the business was built from Nigeria shaped it: capital, regulation and market size differ by country, and they decide what is even attemptable.

Tony Elumelu is still active, and the verdict on the career has not been reached.
