Stanbic Bank Ghana has hosted a diaspora engagement event, bringing together some individuals from the diaspora who have expressed strong interest in investing and settling in Ghana.
The interactive session, held in collaboration with the Pan-African Leadership Institute (PALI), served as a platform to forge relationships, share insights, and explore opportunities for mutual growth.
Head of Affluent Clients, Margaret Obimpeh, emphasised the bank’s commitment to supporting the diaspora community.
“This session allowed us to connect with individuals eager to integrate into Ghana’s economy. As a financial institution, we are exploring how we can partner with them to facilitate their settlement and investment plans.
“We see untapped opportunities in this space and are committed to creating solutions that will enable these individuals to contribute meaningfully to Ghana’s development,” she said.
She further noted that the bank would use insights from the engagement to collaborate with key stakeholders, aiming to address the unique challenges faced by the diaspora community in navigating Ghana’s economic landscape.
