About Bena
Nkhoma

Benedicto “Bena” Nkhoma stands as one of Malawi's most distinguished banking professionals, with over 25 years of experience at the highest levels of the country's financial sector. His career, marked by strategic vision, unwavering integrity, and a deep commitment to national development, has left an indelible mark on Malawi's economic landscape.

A graduate of the University of Bangor, Bena brought world-class academic grounding to the Malawian banking sector, where he would spend decades shaping institutions, mentoring talent, and influencing financial policy. His rise from banking professional to top executive is a story of discipline, expertise, and an unrelenting pursuit of excellence.

Today, Bena serves as a Director at Britam Insurance Malawi — one of the country's leading insurance firms — where he continues to shape the financial services sector. Alongside this, he leads Fortune CP Limited, a renewable energy company he founded, reflecting his broader vision for sustainable African development.

As an author, Bena has committed his insights to print. His books, The Art of Building Wealth and Ignite Success, have reached readers across Malawi and beyond, offering practical frameworks for financial independence and personal leadership. These works cemented his reputation as not just a practitioner, but a genuine thought leader.

Widely recognised as one of Malawi's most followed economic commentators, Bena regularly features in national media — including Maravi Express, Nation Online, Malawi24, and Wealth Malawi Magazine — where he analyses financial markets, investment trends, and macroeconomic developments with a depth that has earned him the trust of business leaders, entrepreneurs, and everyday Malawians alike.

“Wealth is not an accident. It is the result of disciplined thinking, strategic action, and an unshakeable belief in your own potential.”

Beyond business, Bena is a humanitarian at heart. His philanthropic work spans education, community development, and financial literacy programs aimed at lifting Malawians into economic self-reliance. He believes that true wealth — of any nation or individual — is measured by how many lives it transforms.
