Patience Mapeza - Founder of TATU Capital (Private) Limited

Patience Mapeza

Patience is a well-known and a celebrated banker with experience spanning over 20 years. Over the years, she has been involved in Consumer Banking, Value Added Services, SMEs and Corporate Banking. Her strength in exponential bank revenue generation and growth through risk management, opportunity maximization, digital transformation and wide product deployment which saw her rise in the banking sector.

Patience can be credited with driving financial inclusion and women empowerment within the banking sector and was influential in modeling products that serve the lower end of the market. Key to her success in that space was her deep understanding of the terrain and creatively crafting unique, digitally enabled, and cost-effective access to banking services. Driven by her passion for both women and food security, she has been the driving force behind the establishment of TATU Capital, a business that seeks to ensure that women are financially included, noting that financially excluded women are also left out from economic activity and it is with this overbearing mandate that she has tasked herself to work with women in Zimbabwe.

Patience currently sits on the SOS Zimbabwe and Zimbabwe Women’s Bureau boards and is involved in both the HR and Finance sub-committees.
