Kaaseman Rural Bank posts impressive growth

 Development Bank Ghana (DBG) has disbursed GH¢2.5billion to about 1,000 businesses across all 16 regions over the past five years - with more than half the beneficiaries being women-led enterprises, the bank’s Chief Executive Officer Prof. Randolph Nsor-Ambala has disclosed.

The Managing Director of Ghana's number one bank, GCB Bank, Mr. Farihan Alhassan, has been honoured with the Special African Leadership Commendation Award in recognition of his outstanding contribution to Ghana's banking sector and his role in driving institutional growth, innovation and financial inclusion.

The latest Eurobond repayment by government has strengthened confidence in the country’s commitment to honouring its post-restructuring debt obligations, but investors and analysts say sustained fiscal discipline and continued macroeconomic improvements will determine whether the gains translate into lower borrowing costs and a return to international capital markets.

Government is stepping up efforts to tackle Ghana’s recurring urban flooding by mobilising state institutions, including the Bank of Ghana (BoG), alongside the private sector under a strategy that combines sustained sanitation campaigns with infrastructure investment.
