The Second Deputy Governor of the Bank of Ghana, Matilda Asante-Asiedu, has reaffirmed the Bank’s commitment to building a stronger, more resilient, and inclusive financial sector as it advances reforms in the Microfinance and Specialized Deposit-Taking Institutions (SDI) sub-sectors.
Speaking at the 16th Annual General Meeting of the Ghana Association of Savings and Loans Companies (GHASALC) in Accra on 27 August 2026, Mrs Asante-Asiedu emphasised that the reforms aim not only to strengthen institutions, but also to rebuild public confidence, deepen financial inclusion, and support sustainable economic growth.
She stated: “This reform is not merely about introducing stricter regulations. It is about rebuilding public confidence and trust, deepening financial inclusion for the unbanked, MSMEs, women and the youth, strengthening local participation and ownership, and building a financial system capable of sustaining Ghana’s growth for the next generation.”
She called for continued collaboration between the Bank of Ghana, financial institutions, government agencies, industry associations, development partners, and customers to ensure the reforms deliver a more stable, robust, and trusted financial sector.
