Abdul-Nashiru Issahaku: Developing Ghana's Banking System
Abdul-Nashiru Issahaku: Developing Ghana’s banking system Speech by Dr Abdul-Nashiru Issahaku, Governor of the Bank of Ghana, at the inauguration of the Sunyani regional office building, Sunyani, 30 June 2016. * * * Nananom Board of Directors of Bank of Ghana Representatives of Banks in the Brong-Ahafo Region Representatives of Security Agencies in the Brong -Ahafo Region Heads of Departments Regional Managers My cherished members of staff Distinguished ladies and gentlemen Good morning I am delighted to welcome you all to the inauguration of our new Sunyani Regional Office building. Let me sincerely thank the Chiefs and people of Sunyani, in fact, the Brong Ahafo Region for making the land available to us. This is a clear indication of the support and collaboration between the Bank and the Chiefs. And let me also take this opportunity to thank the immediate past Governor of the Bank of Ghana Dr. Henry Kofi Wampah for spearheading this project and seeing to its completion. As we may all be aware, prior to the construction of this ultra-modern office complex, the Sunyani Regional Office had operated from the second floor of a building whose lower floors were occupied by GCB Bank. The regulator sharing office with the client is not ethically sound and exposes the Bank to familiarity threats. In addition, the former Office did not have a banknote processing capacity and depended on the Kumasi Regional Office for the processing of its deposits as well as fit-sorting banknotes for re-issuance to banks and other financial institutions in its catchment area.
