The missions of Scheut worked closely with their financiers. In December 1959, the director of the Compagnie du Katanga - also deputy director of C.C.C.I. - Lucien de Béco informed about a particular évolué who might come in handy in the industrial world due to his large influence in Leopoldville (Kinshasa). One day later, de Béco informed the director of the Société générale de Belgique (and later chairman of C.I.C.) Wallef via a note about this interesting news. Letter from A. du Vernay about a young évolué Mobutu, 1959.
