Deposit Mobilisation: Ecobank, GCB and Stanbic lead with combined deposits of GHS 51.7bn

According to the recently released Global InfoAnalytics report on the 2022 financial year performance analysis of banks in Ghana, the banking sector witnessed a substantial increase in deposits across all institutions. This surge in deposits not only points to the confidence of depositors but also underlines the role of banks in mobilizing savings and driving economic growth. Ecobank, GCB Bank, and Stanbic emerged as the top-ranking banks, with Ecobank leading the pack with GHS19.6 billion in deposits, followed closely by GCB Bank and Stanbic with GHS17.5 billion and GHS14.6 billion, respectively.

Of particular interest is the significant presence of Ghanaian-owned banks in the country’s financial landscape, comprising 39% of the total banks operating in Ghana. Among these, GCB Bank emerged as the leader in deposit rankings, recording GHS17.5 billion. Fidelity Bank and Consolidated Bank followed suit, with GHS9.3 billion and GHS7.8 billion in deposits, respectively. OmniBsic, with GHS2.5 billion in deposits, secured the last position among the Ghanaian-owned banks.

The primary function of banks revolves around accepting deposits from the public and utilizing these funds to create assets in the form of loans and advances. Deposits come in various forms, including savings accounts, demand deposit accounts, fixed deposits, call deposits, and other investment instruments. This diverse range of deposit options allows individuals and businesses to select the most suitable accounts based on their financial needs and risk appetite.

The notable increase in deposits highlights the confidence of depositors in the banking sector and their trust in these financial institutions to safeguard their funds. This influx of deposits provides banks with the necessary capital to support economic growth by extending loans and advances to individuals and businesses. Furthermore, it showcases the vital role banks play in mobilizing savings and allocating capital for productive purposes within the Ghanaian economy.

To sustain and grow their deposit base, banks must remain focused on offering a wide range of deposit products, competitive interest rates, and excellent customer service. By doing so, they can attract and retain customers, fostering long-term relationships and bolstering their overall performance. Moreover, the ability of banks to effectively manage their deposit base contributes to the stability and resilience of the financial system.

The increased deposit growth in Ghana’s banking sector is not only a positive indicator for individual banks but also for the broader economy. As banks channel these deposits into loans and advances, it stimulates economic activity, promotes investment, and supports the growth of businesses. The banking sector acts as a key intermediary in facilitating the flow of funds from savers to borrowers, driving economic expansion and creating employment opportunities.
