MobileMoney Fintech LTD Launches Drive to Support 600 Small Businesses Across Ghana

 MobileMoney Fintech LTD (MMFL) has launched a nationwide initiative to support six hundred (600) micro, small and medium enterprises with practical training in financial literacy, digital payments, credit readiness, and business growth.

Through its “Wo Nkɔsoɔ” initiative, MMFL is helping entrepreneurs improve record-keeping, manage cash flow, build savings habits and become better positioned for credit, insurance, and future investment.

The programme targets informal sector operators, including women-led businesses, fashion designers (dressmakers and tailors), hairdressers, and farmers, many of whom support households and communities while operating with limited access to formal financial tools.

In collaboration with Universal Merchant Bank, Kola Market, and the national associations representing these groups, MMFL is delivering hands-on training in digital banking, fraud prevention, business formalisation, and credit readiness.

MobileMoney, Fintech, Small BusinessesSpeaking at the launch held in Kumasi as part of the National Conference of the Ghana Dressmakers and Tailors Association, Charles Osei Owusu, Senior Manager for Business Development at MobileMoney Fintech LTD, said the initiative was inspired by the everyday struggles of entrepreneurs who work hard but often lack the financial systems needed to grow sustainably.

We engage business owners who have the talent, determination, and customer base to grow, yet many still lack access to the financial tools they need to scale. This initiative is designed to bridge that gap with practical support tailored to their needs,” he said.

He added that MMFL sees financial inclusion as more than access to transfers, but as access to savings, credit, insurance, and a stronger financial identity for everyday Ghanaians.

Launched in Kumasi, the programme will roll out across Accra, Takoradi and Tamale this year through four trade-specific training sessions aimed at reaching about 600 entrepreneurs nationwide.

MobileMoney Fintech LTD is committed to building Ghana’s digital future together while unlocking growth and opportunities for everyone through financial solutions that empower individuals, businesses, and communities to thrive.

Fitch Solutions retains 2025 growth rate projection at 4.2%

 Fitch Solutions has reaffirmed its projection that Ghana’s economy will expand by 4.2% in 2025. This estimate slightly exceeds the International Monetary Fund’s forecast of 4% and the World Bank’s projection of 3.9%. The UK-based research firm attributes its outlook to historically high gold prices, which are expected to cushion the Ghanaian economy against a global slowdown triggered by rising tariffs. Higher gold prices are anticipated to strengthen government revenue, enhance foreign exchange earnings, and help sustain currency stability. The report also highlights that Ghana is relatively less vulnerable to increasing trade restrictions from the United States, given that its primary exports—gold and crude oil—are not directly affected by the tariffs introduced by President Trump’s administration. Moreover, the US constitutes only about 4% to 5% of Ghana’s total exports. In contrast, Ghana’s trade relations are more heavily oriented toward China and European countries, particul...

BoG injects $20m into FX market to support 11 BDCs

  The Bank of Ghana (BoG) has injected $20 million into the foreign exchange market in the latest round of its forward FX auction targeted at Bulk Oil Distribution Companies (BDCs). The intervention, which benefited eleven BDCs, is part of the central bank’s broader strategy to stabilise the cedi and ensure price stability in the petroleum downstream sector. Held on Tuesday, April 29, the auction was priced at a locked exchange rate of GHS 14.28 to the US dollar, with bid offers ranging from GHS 13.85 to GHS 15.55. This move reflects the BoG’s continued effort to deepen forex liquidity and safeguard the domestic fuel supply chain against volatility in global energy markets. By directly supplying FX to BDCs, the central bank seeks to ease pressure on the interbank market, guarantee the uninterrupted flow of petroleum products, and mitigate the pass-through effects of exchange rate fluctuations on fuel prices. The $20 million disbursement forms part of a $120 million programme for th...
