OmniBSIC Bank announces strong performance, vision at maiden ‘Figures in Focus’ forum
OmniBSIC Bank Ghana Limited has officially launched its inaugural ‘Meet the Market’ event under the banner ‘Figures in Focus’, marking a bold step in its stakeholder engagement strategy.
The event, which took place at the bank’s headquarters in Airport City, Accra, attracted an impressive mix of regulators, institutional investors, pension fund managers, and customers. Representatives from the National Pensions Regulatory Authority (NPRA), the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and other key financial players were in attendance.
The high-level engagement offered participants a rare opportunity to interact directly with board members and executives of the bank, gaining firsthand insights into OmniBSIC’s performance, vision, and long-term strategy. It also served as a platform for transparency, accountability, and dialogue on the bank’s growth journey.
Addressing the gathering, Managing Director of OmniBSIC Bank, Mr. Daniel Asiedu, underscored the importance of deliberate strategy, sound banking practices, and disciplined execution in the bank’s turnaround story. “This level of performance is not coincidental. It is the outcome of meticulous planning, strategic decision-making, and a relentless focus on delivering value to our customers and shareholders,” he stated.
He outlined a series of key milestones, beginning with the bank’s successful recapitalisation in 2021, which laid the groundwork for its first profit in 2023. In 2024, the bank achieved an impressive profit of GH¢314 million, doubling its previous year’s performance. According to Mr. Asiedu, the bank’s total assets also surged to GH¢9.4 billion, supported by a 70 percent increase in customer deposits, which reached GH¢8.2 billion. During the same period, OmniBSIC expanded its loan book to GH¢1.03 billion from GH¢580 million in 2023, representing a 77 percent increase aimed at fueling business and economic growth.
He noted, however, that this expansion is guided by a cautious lending approach that prioritises sustainability and long-term client relationships. Mr. Asiedu reaffirmed the bank’s unwavering commitment to delivering value to shareholders. “Our responsibility to shareholders is clear—we are building a bank that is financially strong, operationally efficient, and strategically positioned for long-term growth,” he added.
Board Chair, Mrs. Teresa Effie Cooke, echoed the Managing Director’s sentiments and highlighted the bank’s achievements in promoting workplace equity. She noted that OmniBSIC has nearly achieved a 50/50 gender ratio, a milestone that reflects its commitment to diversity and inclusive leadership. “Diversity strengthens our institution, and we remain committed to fostering an equitable workplace where all employees can thrive,” she stated.
Looking to the future, OmniBSIC Bank is aiming to cement its position as a formidable player in Ghana’s banking industry. Mr. Asiedu outlined plans to strengthen the bank’s capital base, expand market share, enhance product offerings, and invest significantly in digital banking solutions. “Our trajectory is clear, and our focus remains on sustainable growth, innovation, and delivering superior banking experiences,” he noted.
The bank is also ramping up investment in technology and staff capacity building to support its customer-centric agenda. Its 40-branch network across Ghana is backed by a comprehensive suite of corporate, SME, and retail banking solutions tailored to meet diverse client needs.
OmniBSIC Bank’s transformation over the past few years has been remarkable. It has received multiple recognitions for excellence, including the Most Customer-Centric Bank (CIMG, 2022), Fastest-Growing Corporate Bank in Ghana (Global Banking and Finance Awards, 2023), Best Bank in Ghana (Ghana Business Awards, 2023), Bank of the Year (Ghana Business Standard Awards, 2024), SME Bank of the Year (Ghana Credit Excellence Awards, 2024), Best Ghanaian-Owned Emerging Brand (Made-in-Ghana Awards, 2024), and Best Corporate Bank, Ghana (Global Banking and Finance Awards, 2024). The bank is currently ranked 29th among Ghana’s top 100 companies by the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre (GIPC).
The ‘Figures in Focus’ forum is expected to become a recurring feature of OmniBSIC’s corporate calendar, reinforcing its commitment to transparency, performance, and stakeholder value.
