Econet says Eddie Chibi still CEO of its fintech businesses

Econet Wireless Zimbabwe this week confirmed Eddie Chibi was still the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of its financial technology (fintech) businesses, following the successful demerger of these units from EcoCash Holdings Zimbabwe Limited under a recent restructuring exercise.

In a joint statement issued by Econet and EcoCash Holdings, the companies announced that Chibi will now oversee key fintech operations, including EcoCash, EcoSure, Maisha Health Fund, MARS Zimbabwe, and Vaya Technologies. These entities were transferred from EcoCash Holdings to Econet as part of a broader corporate “scheme of reconstruction”.
