Founder

Master Chris‑Cicéron BAKUMBA BOFAYA,


- Currently Shareholder – President of this Firm bearing his name, he is simultaneously:
i. A Statesman, fully committed to the universal cause of human rights and to his country, the Democratic Republic of Congo. He strives for the well‑being of humanity in general and of his fellow citizens in particular. He played a key role in the National Inclusive Political Dialogue that resulted in the Saint‑Sylvestre Agreement and the political de‑escalation report on emblematic cases, in which he was the principal drafter, and made significant contributions to the 2018 and 2023 electoral processes.

ii. A lawyer by profession with nineteen (19) years of experience, beginning as Branch Manager at Entreprises de Cock (EDC), now DEMATCO. He has defended the interests of major institutions in both the public and private sectors and held governance roles in financial and insurance institutions as well as in several public-sector companies while serving as Legal Advisor to the Deputy Prime Minister in charge of Transport and Communication.



Vision

It is therefore from all this experience and background that the founder established his vision:
• to create this firm with a liberal entrepreneurial spirit and with expertise that is both varied and independent or disinterested, to serve all just socio-economic causes inspired by or aiming at respecting the principles of sustainable development
• to materialize the international vocation of the firm in order to connect the business world from all 5 continents with that of the Democratic Republic of Congo, whose soil, subsoil, water and forest resources are undeniably an essential reserve for humanity’s survival. And consequently,
• to address the unsuspected contrast between the low level and quality of its business environment and the living conditions of its population.

Thus, as part of its institutional development, through its liaison offices or extensions, both in the 26 provinces of Congo and in certain African countries and beyond African borders, the firm aims to attract major investors to the strategic sectors of the Congolese economy, notably by strengthening their risk management policies, aligning their practices with sustainable economy principles and internationally accepted governance and management standards, ensuring qualitative human resource leadership and effective fiduciary management.

iii. A committed scholar in academic research. Since November 2024, he has been enrolled in the Advanced Studies Diploma (DEA) in Law at the University of Kinshasa. He already holds a Postgraduate Specialized Studies Diploma (DESS/Master) in the same field from the same university, where he now pursues research.
• Accredited by the Central Bank of Congo, he served as Chairman of the Ethics and Compliance Committee at SMF IFOD SA from June 2016 to June 2024, with an official certificate of performance and commendation from the CENCO Bishops' Permanent Committee.

• He also served as Chairman of the Board of AGEAS CENCO SA (the insurance agency of the Episcopal Conference), resigning on January 7, 2025, with a certificate of performance signed by the Director‑General.
• From December 2016 to October 2019, while serving as Legal Advisor to the Deputy Prime Minister, he was a delegate to the Boards of Directors of Lignes Maritimes Congolaises (LMC SA), Office de Gestion de Fret Multimodal (OGEFREM), Régie des Voies Aériennes (RVA SA), Société Commerciale des Transports et des Ports (SCTP SA), and Transports au Congo (TRANSCO).

• During the same period, he represented the Deputy Prime Minister
i. At the Monitoring Commission of the Banana Deep Water Port;
ii. At the Regional Maritime Funds Commission;
iii. At the Hydrocarbons Commission; and
iv. At the National OHADA Commission.

• He has received numerous certified professional trainings in Africa and Europe: Debt recovery (Cotonou 2012, Lyon 2014); Alternative dispute resolution (Ouagadougou 2013, Lyon 2014, Paris 2015); Audit and compliance (Abidjan 2015, Paris 2016); Corporate governance in the OHADA zone (Dakar 2016, Lyon 2016); and political facilitation for peaceful conflict resolution (Chavannes 2017).
