by dipping the entirety of
European economies and
developed and emerging economies
in a financial crisis without
previous for we still identify
today and done 15 September 2008
it’s the brand in our history
modern it scores a goal of 10
since it devotes to the bankruptcy of
one of the oldest institutions
international financial human
ravagers who collapsed made a
vulgar castle because 15.7 in 2008
that day had the effect of a real
raz of the east whose life since a
twenty thousand people who
want all that day including
currency like women love that
you just watched on this video
that day I was also returning six
months with only the luggage cartons
in which jean closed years
hard work but especially my
dreams my inspirations a certainty of
the time
that day world collapses art I
will see my benchmarks almost eight years
day to day I am today
before you I am fired crisis
investment in a capital fund
capital investment
is dedicated to
funding of national champions and
economic development of the continent
if I’m here today in front of you
it is to tell you that it is possible
and that we are not the measure of
our potential
if there is one thing you need
remember your intervention is that we
we all have the power to
realize our dreams of realizing our
aspirations
if we believe in it at most
deep in ourselves that freezes game
philippe elected I am here by the way
of ivory as some of you
i studied at gujan all
started with primary studies
it was quite simple since this
time deep down everything I am
asked was to have good
Notes
where does working come from being a good
student and excel in every way
in everything I did so who
could not be any clearer
share as a roadmap
then came the moment to help both
high school and there I
were starting to ask me what I
wanted to do
when I grow up by the man is he
of course on hers when my mother
that she was not so factions when
this one answered but paris and who
sure you want to spend his whole life
sitting behind the same counter at
serve the drugs oh my client I
I’m sure you were a lot
more exciting
passion to be passionate about
thing we know it really means he
I had to find a topic theme
a vocation that can fascinate me and
that I did one day my job
I’m talking about a time the coast
Ivory is plagued by its first
economic difficulties of an era
where finally the power
been relegated a staging stage and where
I take a microphone it will be a lot
healthier I believe is
so I’m talking about an era
where finally the Ivory Coast was
was at the end of his flight and
his Ivorian economic miracle and where
the theme of white elephants
from Africa was the one who was
used in the spheres
international to describe is
pointed out our decline and that
of integrality due continent
then unfortunately comes the first
coup d’état
and it is at this particular moment that
as in a feeling of revenge
I decided without necessarily
know how I was going to contribute
to the group positioning of my country
on the economic sphere
international and that I had contributed
months to the economic development of
my continent
I was 18 years old a hundred days
workout how to do it bac
in the pocket
and since I did not know what
were the ways to get to this
great ambition
I decided to get into the
great adventure of the great schools of
trade going through a class
preparatory
and that’s where starts at the beginning
great difficulties there were most
the isolation distance the
hard work again and again
always work but that did not have in
never makes an end and seen that in fact we
had learned that in all things that
do I do that I had to
will mention the responsibilities
a tired evening of working tired
and added badges I decide to
take my courage with both hands and
to call my mother to tell her that
I had thought carefully and that I
I had thought carefully and that I
decided to go back to Ivory Coast and
to stop the preparation no problem if
the country can offer a lot
opportunities to young people without
degrees like you want to be
surface technician on the track
public
you can sell all kinds of products
by the side of the road
you can not even what
digging but these scenes because he’s going to
need a degree and especially out of
question that you’re a cashier in the
pharmacy because it’s already fun
because it’s rather offering without
diploma and then I never took
no one by that they are and there is no
no reason I start with you
but good since you really
thought his decision as welcome
and rowing am told that it would be seen
his prospects it would be much more
simple for me to stay in my
locked room continues to cram
metaireau y economic theory for
pass the concours des grandes écoles
of business
rather than going back home and
to understand is the same of all these
beautiful thiriot harbor insect
hockey and so that’s how after
two years of hard work game
beat in the contests of the grandes écoles
of commerce and the first drama of my
life I do not have h essays I do not have the
second best business school
in cubes I do not have the third
best business school either I
only have the fourth region
the fall troll drama
and by the way, fortunately, that
I had this school because it is there
that I was able to meet my husband who
were delighted to have the eye have
bought it was not that problem
and honestly life was very
beautiful planes so why why
ask as long as you have to see if can
very well attacked his happiness to you
and so I’m going 6 to 4 you it’s not
Serious I did not have the best school
of commerce but I decided that
I was going to have the course of the best
students and the one to get stained know I
you speak the nude years this is the
sacred of international finance
mergers IPOs
acquisitions is the coronation of banks
business and so I decided that
I was going to integrate one of the
better bigger so business
from the international scene to this
time there were four that
dreamed
goldman sachs lyman engraver merrill
lynch morgan stanley by the way
today there are more than two
have survived the crisis and so after a
very selection process
competitive that’s how I integrate
in June 2006 the ravishing imam so this
department has mergers acquisitions at
london even before I finish my
studying and getting my degree
I was barely twenty three years old
the team I was joining at the time
was one of the most successful of the
international financial scene
since it achieves 40% of the volume
the largest transactions in
mergers and acquisitions
the time
what was my pride the storm and
more when I was able to join them
and what was my pride
to be able to work with her
it was a very hard environment for
rule the cult of absolute excellence
of the chart of the infinite quest of
perfection of the hard work of the
surpassing ourselves we did not have the
right to see and gives us a job
average from 8 am to 3 am
every day what they were wrong
to return home
at 23h to be totally
overworked in front of me who does not
did not ever make that mistake anymore
that was the world here
business bank a machine
ruthless who turned us into
automaton he we think more
we were only focused on
which on this piece of perfection
and we think more individually
but collectively but confuses us
were the immediate nothing could we
Stop
nothing could destroy us and we
were starting to take risks
disproportionate until this summer
2007 or arrived the first turnaround
situation and the subprime crisis
we refused to hear the first
signs to alert people who
was trying to alarm us on
precisely this turnaround
and this existence of a debt
impressionable at the level of this law
those people there who are trying to
alert find themselves relegated to their
grade and a cult of finance
international who could not
understand the world in which we
lived and could only be
this kind of cages heavy and a little
this tible thing in which we evolve
indescribable until Friday 12
September 2008 three days before the
great that day the people that
I finally instituted as a model
of successful success so it is and
business that made the rain and the
nice weather in the square
financial center of london
these sharks as they were called
collapsed under the eyes because he
realized that they had lost everything
past their present their future in a
barrel maybe even me the reason
of aden I will always remember
one but director who was the most
performance actually our 20 years
who taught us all in his office
who took out a box of tequila in
bottle of tequila that told us the
children of the wind is the end of the flight a
other success is there when I the
watched as he collapsed and drowned his
sorrow and his sad sadness in a
poor little bottle of tequila I get
realized that what I had
instituted into a successful model which
for me was finally the grail of the
severe grac
this unsinkable ship in which we
had all evolved during all these
years was flowing like
a vulgar titanic and that I
sank with him
September 15, 2008 collapses that go
to become the golden girl is no longer the imam
flap is no longer I have no reason
of years is so ahead a
violent period of introspection of
questioning basically that wanted
what you want is what I wanted
really be she was but raph
what were my aspirations that
judge and am proud of what I
came and here I hear said the little
girl who had grown to the edge and the
lifting of the edge of the lagoon eel
and to whom his parents had always
says whatever you do it takes
that you do with passion because
it’s passion that will determine a
success blow me to the ear you tell us
have forgotten
you forgot me you forget
and there I decided rather than
give up and succumb and
face this failure to take my
courage in both hands and to make this
failure
the engines of my second success in
anyway the engines of a season
successful and so I decided to
reconnect with the first vocation
was the one to counter
to the economic development of our
country in the background that was the vocation
first is so I identified the
main institutions that was
very active in financing the
private sector on the African continent
and that’s how I went
knock on the door of proparco subsidiary
French German Development
and entities that is the most active in
financing of the tribe sector in
French speaking Africa
I will tell my story and I will tell them
have said you have ambition to
develop the continent
I have for vocation and ambition to
participate in the flight of my continent
take me because you can not
you will not find it better to motivate than
me to fulfill this mission
and that’s how I integrated
Banks and markets teams
financial proparco and it’s been a
revelation
it was one of the most beautiful
experiences of my life because I
rediscovered not only my
Africanity
but I will talk about the northern continent
[Music]
and Africa between opportunities
of young african entrepreneurs and
the financial institutions of the
city of europe and that’s what I did
and dating in meetings
I decided to accept the
proposal of the Directorate- General for
proparco who was leaving to found at
finesse finance is so today I
am director in this fund and I can
to say that yes I had realized my dream
since I contributed
over the past eight years to
financing of which more than twenty
of entrepreneurs for twenty or so
financial companies and companies
for amounts in euros of one
hundred million dollars
here
and yes it is clear if it was
not at all it was bozic lokoka bank
business but the gold elsewhere is
found much more comfortable in
his country in Ivory Coast where I
even helped to create a
investment fund product agreement
here in ivory coast born visit to
rennais the local spared for the
reinvest in the economic fabric of
country of bankruptcy is distressing
it was his vocation
finally I succeeded and you what are
your ambitions what are your dreams
what are your inspirations because
see you we will all have fears
doubts of the fears that we will engage
to go to the end of ourselves
as said in particular drome where
the sims 3 it’s good m on 10 tons I
I’m sam that will always appear
impossible until we do
and that’s what I came to tell you
today deep down we all have in
our potential just waiting
attribute
we have all the world and tricks
who asks to be scratched the flight
fireflies when the organizers
from the darkness
we had participated in this edition
I asked myself about the theme
and on its meaning it’s true that it’s
very nice evolution ‘it symbolizes the
successful the consecration of a
succeed but be careful
the eruption died after then in
so what am I coming to tell you
[Music]
let us take a stubborn
become the butterflies that will carry
the flight of our continent of tomorrow
realize your dreams as soon as possible
expiry

world adam 12 to take flight and the
economic development of our
continent

for the world for our continent and
