Lionel Zinsou is one of the most popular and richest Investment Banker who was born on October 23, 1954 in Paris, Île-de-France, France. Lionel Zinsou, a French-Beninese economist who is also an investment banker and was Prime Minister of Benin between 2015 and 2016. He has been president of Terra Nova since June 2017. This think tank is a French centre-left think tank.
His Zinsou Foundation, which opened in Ouidah (Benin) in 2013, was the first museum to exhibit contemporary art from sub-Saharan Africa.
Zinsou announced on 1 December 2015 that he would stand as the candidate of the Cowry Forces for an Emerging Benin in the 2016 presidential election. He said that he would focus on financing agriculture and helping informal workers obtain formal employment.
On 18 June 2015, President Yayi Boni appointed Zinsou as Prime Minister of Benin, along with a 27-member government, and assigned him responsibility for economic development. The post of Prime Minister does not exist in the 1990 constitution, and for most of Yayi Boni’s presidency—and most of the period since the constitution came into effect—no one held the post. Zinsou’s appointment came less than 10 months before the end of the President’s second term, and as the latter is barred from seeking re-election, some viewed the appointment as possibly being a signal that Zinsou was his chosen successor.
Zinsou was previously a partner at bankers Rothschilds, before joining PAI Partners in 2008 as an investment fund manager. From 2006 to 2011, he was Special Adviser to Yayi Boni, President of Benin.
