He was later promoted to treasury dealer, a position he held for four years, managing the bank&#039;s liquidity.Proud momentIn 2018, he transitioned to the role of treasury analyst and investment portfolio manager at the Government Institutions Pension Fund (GIPF), where he managed a N$22 billion fund in fixed income, equity and currency hedging.

He values the work-life balance his position offers, allowing him to pursue interests like cycling, swimming and spending time with family.Highly cognisant of his strengths and weaknesses, Muinjo said: "My areas of strength include analysis, decision-making and my extensive experience in treasury and investment management. My weakness is understanding that while I am eager to implement change, I also need to be open to other’s perspective of change".Embracing his new position at the MVA Fund, a zealous Muinjo said with dedication and hard work, he plans to contribute to taking the fund to greater heights. EducationWith a robust academic background, he holds a bachelor&#039;s degree in financial economics and banking from the University of Tizi-Ouzou, Algeria, and a bachelor of economics (honours) from the Namibia University of Science and Technology (NUST).
