But we have heard their submission and essentially they want to clear everybody\u2019s mine that there is no fraud. What is the point of getting money that is painted with fraud so we are happy with the judgement; the status quo remains and interest rates continue to accrue and we have our concerned judgement still standing,\u201d he indicated.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Adu Sarkodee further maintained that the current decision of the apex bank, should not affect the case in its entirety.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor us it doesn\u2019t have any bearing we would rather this matter is resolved in the Boardroom but if the SIC Insurance chooses to treat disagreement with their client in the court of law, it is fine, we will work it,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier the Managing Director of SIC, Stephen Oduro, commenting on the ruling told Citi Business News the Supreme Court\u2019s decision will restore the company\u2019s reputation and improve its business performance.<\/p>\n<p>The case which has been dragging at the courts over the past five years, has led to the dismissal of SIC\u2019s former Managing Director, Doris Awo Nkani.<\/p>\n<p>Though Ivory Finance claims it is due some 91 million cedis (comprising 19.3 million cedis principal plus interest), Mr. Sarkodie tells Citi Business News it is yet to receive any extra payments after SIC paid the principal as ordered by an Accra High Court.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 33 updated by: 33 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Business News of Thursday, 22 February 2018 Source: citifmonline.com 2018-02-22 Ivory Finance Ivory Finance has told Citi Business News it still stands by its case of being owed by SIC Insurance in a breach of contract in a credit guarantee case currently before the court.
