Biography

From São Tomé and Príncipe, Ramos studied abroad at Moscow State University in Russia, where he received a degree in economics after having attended from 1989 to 1995. He then returned to São Tomé and joined the Ministry of Finance, where he worked as a budget technician from 1995 to 1998. He then worked as head of the expenditure department from 1998 to 2000, head of the budget department from 2000 to 2001, budget director from 2001 to 2009, and director of the treasury from 2009 to 2010. In 2010, Ramos became the São Tomé Minister of Finance, a position he held until 2012. He was re-appointed to the post in 2014 and served until 2018, then becoming an economic advisor to President Evaristo de Carvalho in 2019.

Ramos was arrested in 2019 and detained for three months, charged with corruption, money laundering and other crimes. After he spent three months in the country's central prison, he was acquitted by the public prosecutor's office.

In December 2022, Ramos was appointed governor of the Central Bank of São Tomé and Príncipe.
