“We believe that Patience is an excellent addition to the team. Daniel Boi Addo, the Managing Director of Hollard Insurance Ghana and Iddrisu Nashiru, the Managing Director of Hollard Life Assurance Ghana, will both report directly to Patience,” the statement added.

Mrs Akyianu was the Finance Director of Barclays Bank Ghana before her elevation. Prior to joining Barclays Bank Ghana, Mrs Akyianu was the Chief Finance Officer of Standard Chartered Bank of South Africa.
