Banking is always built on trust; that trust must be earned and protected - 2nd Dep. Governor tells banks

Mrs. Matilda Asante-Asiedu, the Second Deputy Governor of the Bank of Ghana, has emphasized the importance of professionalism, ethical leadership, and trust in the banking industry. This message was delivered during the launch of The Ghanaian Banker Magazine on Friday, 21 August 2026, as Ghana's banking sector adapts to rapid technological advancements, artificial intelligence, regulatory reforms, and global economic uncertainty.

Mrs. Asante-Asiedu praised the Chartered Institute of Bankers, Ghana (CIB Ghana) for facilitating professional discussions, knowledge exchange, and thoughtful contemplation of banking's future. She reiterated that trust in banking is not automatically granted but must be diligently earned and safeguarded through integrity, professionalism, and responsible behavior at all organizational levels.

In addition, Mrs. Asante-Asiedu urged CIB Ghana to empower The Ghanaian Banker to be a bold and influential voice. This voice should challenge established norms, encourage informed debate, and significantly contribute to the evolution of Ghana's financial sector.
