Ghana Credit Excellence Awards 2026 to honour banking and financial sector trailblazers
The event is expected to bring together executives and professionals from universal banks, community banks, microfinance institutions, debt collection agencies and other players within Ghana’s financial ecosystem to celebrate a year of resilience, growth and transformation.
The 7th Ghana Credit Excellence Awards 2026 will take place on Thursday, October 8, 2026, at the VC Complex, Legon, Accra. The event, organized by the Chartered Institute of Credit Management Ghana (CICMG), aims to celebrate outstanding performance, innovation, and leadership across Ghana's banking, microfinance, and credit management sectors.
The ceremony will feature red-carpet arrivals starting at 5:00 p.m. and bring together executives and professionals from various institutions, including universal banks, community banks, microfinance institutions, and debt collection agencies.
