Event Objectives
Apart from creating a platform for financial services providers and regulators to showcase and promote their products and services, organisers, Precise Communications, say Ghana Finance Week will also seek to bridge the financial inclusion gap to accelerate the achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals in Ghana; promote excellence and innovation within the Financial services sector; and inform and educate the public about the various financial products that can enhance their lives and businesses.

“Following the recent collapse of a number of local banks, the Ghana Finance Week 2018 platform offers the ideal opportunity for financial services organisations to strengthen public and investor confidence in the sector. Ghana Finance Week 2018 will educate consumers, elevate the industry, improve financial performance and drive inclusion”, says Stephen Gyasi-Kwaw, CEO of Precise Communications.
