Carlton Jones is a retired Monitor Deloitte Partner and board director based in Dar es Salaam, with 35 years advising banks, governments, DFIs and multinationals across 25+ countries on strategy, trade and investment, as well as value-chain competitiveness. Well connected across Tanzania’s financial sector and policy circles, he opens doors and de-risks execution--bringing investor-grade rigor to corporate strategy, market expansion, and public-private reforms.

At Monitor Deloitte Africa (Tanzania and South Africa), Carlton led multi-country engagements spanning financial-sector transformation, cross-border expansion, and operating-model overhauls for leading banks and state-owned enterprises. He has served on the board for the American Chamber of Commerce in Tanzania and was a leading voice in the bilateral commercial dialogue to strengthen U.S.--Tanzania trade.

Beyond corporate mandates, Carlton has supported government modernization initiatives--most recently as a subject-matter expert contributing to long-term transformation planning around the Treasury Registrar’s growing remit to lift non-tax revenue and professionalize state-asset management.

Earlier in his career, he delivered trade and competitiveness programs across East, West, and Southern Africa and co-authored multiple technical papers for international institutions--including a noted World Bank value-chain study on cashew production in Mozambique.

His academic grounding includes an M.A. in International Public Policy (SAIS, Johns Hopkins) and a B.S. in Marketing (Hampton University).

Today, as a non-executive director and advisor, Carlton brings Anchorage Africa and our portfolio companies a blend of C-suite strategy, banking-sector depth, and policy fluency, a combination that accelerates diligence, unlocks regulatory pathways, and turns market access into bankable growth.
