Saïfi Dawalbet Hamit

Born in Bangui, in the Central African Republic, Saïfi developed from a young age a marked interest in law and the fundamental questions of justice.

With his literary-track Baccalaureate (A4) in hand, he chose to settle in Dakar to pursue his higher education, making the Senegalese capital his academic and professional springboard.

He earned a Licence in Private Law at the Université Catholique de l’Afrique de l’Ouest (UCAO) in 2023, followed by an MBA in Tax and Business Law at the Institut Supérieur de Management (ISM), class of 2025.

Before joining AGI, Saïfi diversified his skills through demanding experiences that sharpened his analytical rigour and his command of regulatory frameworks:

• Legal Assistant at the Moctar-Ngbokoli law firm in Bangui, confronting the realities of counsel and litigation;
• Compliance internship at OLEA Insurance Solutions Africa, a key immersion in risk management and pan-African regulation.

Saïfi joined the Institute as an intern in December 2025 and was appointed Legal Expert and Program Analyst on 4 May 2026. He intervenes actively across AGI’s strategic workstreams:

• Structuring of large-scale projects;
• Drafting of in-depth country analyses;
• Mobilisation of financing;
• Support to public governance initiatives.
