The management of Groupe Nduom has petitioned the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress, John Dramani Mahama, to restore GN Bank\u2019s licence if he emerges victorious in the December 7 elections.<\/strong><\/p>\nGN Bank had its licence revoked by the Bank of Ghana in August 2019.<\/p>\n
During a meeting with the former president in Accra on Friday, July 19, Dr Papa Kwesi Nduom, the Global President of Groupe Nduom, expressed concern over the deteriorating state of 300 of the bank\u2019s centres across the country.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe believe that if this administration doesn\u2019t give us our license before they leave and start paying the money before they leave, we believe that the next one, will understand the situation and give the licence back. So we are continuing with the hope and preparing and working our plans with the hope that, at some point, we will get the licence back and we\u2019ll bring the jobs back. Because it is the jobs, that we are also looking for.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSo we feel that collapsing a 300-branch financial entity is inimical to the economic interest of the country. So whether it even belongs to us or belongs to someone else, it is something that needs to be there,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n
The NDC\u2019s flagbearer criticized the decision of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) government to revoke the licences of some Indigenous financial institutions as part of the 2019 banking sector cleanup, labelling it as a hasty action.<\/p>\n
He further revealed that his administration plans to initiate an independent review of the banking sector cleanup process.<\/p>\n
\u201cI do think that government was hasty in what it did. If you look at the criteria that was used, I mean, it didn\u2019t fit. It was, it was not a one-size-fits-all-all. I mean, it was just like different rules for different, folks and so, yes, as you said, a lot of these banks had also financed government suppliers and contractors and the government owed them and they owed the banks.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut how would they recover that money if you don\u2019t pay the contractors to pay them? And so I do think that it was hasty, and it\u2019s affected indigenous capital in the financial and banking sector. And we have pledged that we would work to restore, you know, the capital of indigenous businesses in the financial sector.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo we are advocating an independent review of the processes that went into the banking sector clean up and where we believe these were unjustifiable, look at the restoration of the licenses of these banks,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n
