Since its inception three years ago, DBG’s wholesale financing model has facilitated significant disbursements through Participating Financial Institutions (PFIs), unlocking projects and value chains to empower several businesses across agribusiness, manufacturing, ICT, and high-value services.

The Bank continues to be dedicated to bridging the MSME financing gap to ensure that Ghanaian businesses gain access to long-term, competitively priced capital, fostering resilience, innovation, and sustainable growth.
