While the firm searches for a replacement for Sameer, the company’s chief financial officer Nalin Negi will be the interim CEO.
“We have recognized the need to dedicate time and resources to finding the leader who will continue to catapult BharatPe to new heights, and we are grateful for the commitment from Suhail and Nalin. We look forward to supporting Nalin Negi in his role as the interim-CEO, as we move ahead in our mission of empowering millions of MSMEs with a range of world-class financial products,” said Rajnish Kumar, chairman of BharatPe board, in a statement.
BharatPe has reportedly hired a firm to scout for a CEO to take over while Negi steers the ship in the interim.
