Ecobank’s Lamine Diop strides through the high-ceilinged lobby of the new office building in Maputo, a rueful smile on his face. “I’m sorry,” he tells Euromoney, coming to a halt in a pool of brilliant early-morning Mozambican sunlight. “I thought we were meeting next week.” The awkward silence that follows is broken by the tall, well-dressed banker, who glances down at his watch and sighs: “Well, I guess we can talk now. I don’t have anything else to do.”
It’s a common lament in Mozambique’s cozy and welcoming capital city.
