Elsie Addo Awadzi: Reforming Ghana's financial system to ensure stability and integrity

Remarks by Ms Elsie Addo Awadzi, Second Deputy Governor of the Bank of Ghana, at the Joy FM Financial Sector Forum, Accra, 1 November 2018.

The views expressed in this speech are those of the speaker and not the view of the BIS.

The stability and integrity of our financial system should be of utmost important to everyone and the economy as a whole. Banks and other institutions that take deposits are regulated to help ensure that they remain safe and sound to perform their critical role in the economy.

As you know the BoG has undertaken a number of reforms recently and continues to strengthen the system. I look forward to sharing some of these reforms with you, and to hearing your thoughts on the reform process so far and going forward.
