Leverage Sustainable Financing to Grow Your Business – MD, GCB Bank

Mr. Kofi Adomakoh - Managing Director, GCB Bank

Mr. Kofi Adomakoh, the Managing Director of GCB Bank, has called on entrepreneurs to leverage on locally available sustainable financing mechanisms to grow and develop their businesses.

According to Mr. Adomakoh, although these funding vehicles are long term inclined, he admonished businesses to get their project operations right.

GCB Bank’s Managing Director stated that sustainability did not mean businesses sacrificing their projects or putting their successes on hold. “Instead, it has become a crucial element to any organisation’s success strategy”.

Bridging technology development ideas

Speaking on the need to merge technology development ideas, Madam Stephanie Sullivan, United States (US) Ambassador to Ghana, said innovation can possibly mean combining pre-existing ideas and technologies in novel ways.

Ms Sullivan said, “as we plan our own personal and business transformations, it’s also important to look at the big picture: the business environment in Ghana and globally”.

Touching briefly of infrastructural development in the country, the US Ambassador stated that a robust infrastructure can be able to transform a local provider into a global supplier.

“We all know the importance of infrastructure to support inclusive economic development and, more broadly, human development.”

Ms. Sullivan revealed that private sector leadership in climate, health and health security, digital technology, and gender equity and equality is the key to success, both globally and in Ghana.

The US’s Ambassador to Ghana urged the participants at the event to leverage the power of the Network and channel their energies towards developing Ghana’s economy considering these four focus areas.

Madam Sullivan stating the viability of the event, said “a network is only as good as the connections that hold it together”.

Challenges facing businesses

Laying bare the difficulties faced by businesses in the country, Mrs. Linda Yaa Ampah, President of STN, outlined lack of funding, and “rising cost of doing business as result of high taxes, high interest rates, high cost of energy” among others, as the major challenges businesses encounter.

Also, amidst the numerous challenges businesses continue to face, Mrs. Ampah disclosed that, there exist various opportunities that continue to emerge from these challenges.

“We are grateful to God that we are all here to continue to pursue initiatives and activities that would contribute to developing Ghana’s economy.”

Mrs. Linda Yaa Ampah

Mrs Ampah further highlighted the various business opportunities that the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) presents to help attain an economically integrated Africa.

In the meantime, Mrs. Ampah, the President for Standford Seed Transformation Network (STN), Ghana Chapter said the conference was purposed to empower businesses to scale up their operations.
