The newly appointed Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Standard Chartered Bank (SCB), Mrs Mansa Nettey, has expressed the bank\u2019s commitment to supporting the new government\u2019s developmental agenda.<\/p>\n
\n
She said the bank had already embarked on a number of initiatives and projects in that regard.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Mrs Nettey said this when the management team of the bank paid a courtesy call on the President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, in Accra.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The courtesy call also provided a platform for the parties to deliberate on how to foster partnerships to create a conducive business environment for the businesses in the country to thrive.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
She said the bank was committed to supporting the private sector, especially the Small and Medium-Scale Enterprises (SMEs), to thrive.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cThe private sector is an area we are looking to grow. We are also looking at supporting them and we have carved out a very special unit mainly because of the importance of the SME,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The newly-appointed CEO observed that she was particularly honoured to head the bank at this time and commended the President\u2019s decision to appoint women in key positions in his administration.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
End of tenure<\/strong><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The outgoing CEO of the bank, Mr Kweku Bedu-Addo, who led the team, informed the President about the end of his tenure as CEO of SCB Ghana Limited and introduced his successor, Mrs Nettey, to the President.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Mr Bedu-Addo said, \u201cI am excited to be handing over to another Ghanaian who also is\u00a0 the first woman to head the bank in its 120-year history in the country. It is a rare honour with her extensive business experience and depth of client relationships, and I am confident that the bank will continue to consistently deliver value to shareholders.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
President expresses confidence<\/strong><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
President Akufo-Addo congratulated Mrs Nettey and wished her well and said he was confident in her ability to lead the bank.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
He noted that banks in the country were going through challenging times with increased regulation and scrutiny from regulators.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Also at the meeting was the Vice-President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, and the Deputy Chief of Staff, Mr Francis Asenso Boakye. The team from SCB included the Head of Retail Banking, Ghana and West Africa, Mr Henry Baye; the Head of Corporate and Institutional Banking, Xorse Godzi; Head, Commercial Banking, Mr Kwabena Boateng; Head, Corporate Affairs & Brand and Marketing, Madam Asiedua Addae and the Business Planning Manager to the CEO, Mr Sam Peprah.<\/p>\n
