So if you fail to apply it then your profits would continue to be wiped away by old and inefficient methods of operation,\u201d Mr Hesse said.<\/p>\n<p>He urged the heads of various firms and organisations to shop around for good technology to enhance their efficiency in payments and pledged assistance to firms which might be interested in the system.<\/p>\n<p>Source: GNA<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p>| | <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/home?status=Currently%20reading%20http:\/\/www.ghanabusinessnews.com\/2011\/04\/19\/payment-distribution-system-is-the-way-to-go-ghipss\/\" title=\"Click to send this page to Twitter!\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tweet This!<\/a> | <\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h4>Comments<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/f30faf9ee-zwich.jpg-150x150.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Read the original:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ghanabusinessnews.com\/2011\/04\/19\/payment-distribution-system-is-the-way-to-go-ghipss\/\" title=\"Payment Distribution System is the way to go \u2013 GhIPSS\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Payment Distribution System is the way to go \u2013 GhIPSS<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> You Are Here: Home \u00bb ICT \u00bb Payment Distribution System is the way to go \u2013 GhIPSS Page last updated at Tuesday, April 19, 2011 8:08 AM \/\/ The Ghana Interbank Payment and Settlement Systems (GhIPSS) has urged firms undertaking large volumes of transactions to avail themselves of technology enabled systems to cut waste and enhance efficiency in payments. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-381953","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-business"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
