MSTRPay has appointed Mr Felix Baah as its Regional Representative for Africa, strengthening the company’s strategic oversight and structured expansion framework across the continent.
Unlike local agents operating under facilitative mandates, the Regional Representative role carries broader coordination and oversight responsibilities within MSTRPay’s governance structure. The appointment reinforces MSTRPay’s disciplined, compliance-led approach to institutional partnerships and joint-venture development across multiple African jurisdictions.
Mr Felix Baah brings more than 35 years of executive leadership experience across Ghana, Sierra Leone, and Cyprus, having served as Managing Director and CEO in finance, securities, mining, and consultancy sectors. His career reflects sustained cross-border operational exposure and senior-level decision-making within regulated environments.
His background in corporate finance, project finance, trade finance, and strategic consultancy aligns directly with MSTRPay’s structured JV model. Mr Baah has extensive experience in evaluating investment opportunities, overseeing financial management processes, and structuring commercially viable partnerships—capabilities central to MSTRPay’s phased market-entry strategy.
Throughout his career, he has maintained a strong compliance and governance orientation, with hands-on experience in regulatory alignment, financial controls, HR governance, and operational protocol development. These competencies are critical for ensuring disciplined due diligence, structured documentation, and post-JV regulatory conformity across diverse African markets.
Mr Baah’s executive profile includes high-level administrative leadership and negotiation expertise. He has managed client negotiations, manpower planning, executive reporting, and long-term strategic planning—skills that support structured engagement with microfinance institutions, licensed banks, and government stakeholders.
Based in Accra, Ghana, Mr Baah will work closely with Mr Peter Rinaldo, Head of Business Relations — Emerging Markets, serving as regional coordinator of agents and joint-venture initiatives across many countries in Africa. In this capacity, he will support alignment of country agents, oversee pipeline quality, and contribute to structured progression from initial assessment through due diligence and executive negotiation stages.
Peter Rinaldo stated:
“Mr Felix Baah’s depth of executive experience and cross-border financial leadership significantly strengthens MSTRPay’s Africa expansion framework. His governance discipline and corporate finance background ensure that our regional activities remain structured, compliant, and strategically aligned.”
As Regional Representative, Mr Baah operates within MSTRPay’s centralised governance model. All capital allocation, valuation decisions, and final commercial structuring remain subject to executive approval at group level. The role is designed to enhance regional oversight, partner screening quality, and regulatory alignment while preserving institutional-grade controls.
MSTRPay’s Africa expansion continues to follow a phased model: assessment, partner identification, regulatory alignment, due diligence, commercial structuring, and executive approval. The appointment of a senior Regional Representative strengthens coordination and execution discipline across the continent while maintaining centralised strategic authority.
