FIRST ATLANTIC BANK SUPPORTS OTUMFUO’s 15th ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATIONS


First Atlantic Bank Limited has made a donation towards the 15th anniversary celebration of Otumfuo Osei Tutu II during a courtesy call on him at the Manhyia Palace.

Ben Barth, a member of the Bank’s Board of Directors led a delegation made up of the MD/CEO, Gabriel Edgal, Daniel Wilson Addo, Executive Director and other senior Staff from the bank to officially congratulate Otumfuo on the milestone.

Ben Barth on behalf of the Board Chairperson used the opportunity to formally inform Otumfuo of the bank’s rebranding and re-launch which according to him is the first of efforts by the Board and Management of First Atlantic Bank to re-invent a bank that is tuned to the discipline of global best practices and the passion of delivering a refreshingly different banking experience for every one that honours us with their business. “Re- launching the bank in Kumasi is to demonstrate our faith and commitment to the industrious, hardworking and illustrious people of Asanteman”. He added.

Edgal expressed the bank’s appreciation to Otumfuo for his immense support throughout the over 15 years the bank has been in Kumasi while mentioning that there was no better place to re-launch than Kumasi which is the heart of business in Ghana. The MD/CEO assured Otumfuo of First Atlantic Bank’s preparedness to support businesses in Kumasi especially with distributor finance, non-traditional exports, payments and collections as well as e-banking solutions.” We will help facilitate the movement of goods and services from Kumasi across the sub-region and beyond and share with the city First Atlantic Bank’s Purple Experience which is a distinctly different and unparalleled customer service experience driven by a passionate workforce and process efficiency to create value for our customers.” He asserted.
Otumfuo Osei Tutu II in his remarks challenged the bank to aggressively pursue a policy of financial inclusion so as to bring banking to the door steps of the ordinary Ghanaian. “There are still so many people and so much money outside of the formal banking sector and it is time banks adopted strategies that will give assurance to the people who still have reservations about banks. Let all our people no matter their status feel welcomed and appreciated anytime they interact with you” Otumfuo counselled.
First Atlantic Bank is a full-scale commercial bank with about 20 years experience in the Ghanaian market. Originally founded as a merchant bank, First Atlantic Bank has won several awards recognizing its excelling leadership in customer care, trade finance and corporate banking.
