About
Abubakar Suleiman has positioned Sterling Bank as one of Nigeria's most fintech-aware traditional financial institutions. Under his leadership, the bank has pursued partnerships designed to expand the financial services available to Nigerians, including its relationship with Thunes to strengthen international payment and remittance capabilities. Suleiman's approach reflects a broader understanding of modern banking: fintech does not necessarily replace the bank; increasingly, the bank becomes part of the infrastructure that fintech depends upon. He belongs on the Borderless 100 because he treats technology companies as extensions of the financial-services supply chain rather than threats to the traditional banking model.
