For the GHS 116.7m untraceable investments, EOCO asserts these monies were placed with investment companies.

Adding that all attempts to trace the whereabouts of the investment companies have been unsuccessful.

The EOCO therefore called on the Central Bank to trace the non-operational investment companies to assist with the recovery of the funds.

EOCO in the report forwarded to the Central Bank, further noted that its investigations revealed a mismatch in the assets and liabilities of the collapsed savings and loans companies and microfinance companies.

It added that, dockets have been prepared for 13 SDIs and forwarded to the Office of the Attorney General for prosecution.

The 13 SDIs include; CDH S&L, GN S&L, IFS FS, FTS Capital MFC, Legacy Capital S&L, Cypress MFC, Midland S&L, Express S&L, DPF MFC, Goldman Capital MFC, UniCredit S&L, Adom Sika MFC, and Dream Finance Limited.
