Addressing participants on March 26, 2026, Vice President Professor Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang underscored the strategic rationale behind the establishment of the Bank under President John Dramani Mahama in 2016. The Vice President further highlighted the need to strengthen Ghana’s financial architecture to support long-term economic transformation. “Ghana’s long-term prosperity depends on strengthening its financial architecture to support production, value addition, and export competitiveness,” she noted. The Vice President emphasised the urgency of diversification against the backdrop of global economic uncertainty, including trade tensions, shifting supply chains, and climate-related risks. Looking ahead, the next phase of GEXIM’s mandate is expected to prioritise expanded export financing, industrial capacity development, and innovation.
