First National Bank ends Q2 2022 with GHS 2.8bn asset base value 

South African-owned Bank, Frist National Bank (Ghana), ended the second quarter of 2022 with a total asset base value of GHS 2.8bn. 

Compared to the asset base value of the bank same period last year, this marks an increase of GHS 643m (28.9%) in asset value. 

Mainly accounting for the increment in the bank’s asset base was a surge in its cash and cash equivalents which grew from GHS 474m in Q2 2021 to GHS 830m in Q2 2022. 

Increments in loans and advances (GHS 907m) and investment securities (GHS 932m) also contributed to the increase in asset base value. 

Regarding liabilities incurred for the review period, First National Bank on a year-on-year basis and as at end-Q2 2022, had recorded total liabilities of GHS 2.3bn.

Compared to the previous year’s – Q2 2021 – liabilities of GHS 1.6bn, this marks an increase of GHS 618m.
