We are the oldest commercial bank in Ghana established in 1896.

Standard Chartered Bank Ghana Limited is the oldest commercial bank in Ghana and has been listed on the Ghana Stock Exchange since 1991. It began its operations in 1896 as the Bank of British West Africa and served as the Central Bank of the Gold Coast in the pre-independence era until 1953. The Bank has three client segments – Corporate and Institutional Banking, Retail Banking and Commercial Banking supported by five product groups – Transaction Banking, Financial Markets, Retail Products, Wealth Management and Corporate Finance.

Being Ghana’s premier bank, Standard Chartered has been at the fore front of financial market development supporting trade and investment activities of our customers and clients. The Bank continues to support Ghana’s diverse sectors of the economy, leading international loan syndications to finance key economic activities such as cocoa and the emerging oil and gas sector.

Capital Market development has been a key area of interest for Standard Chartered Bank. The Bank played a leading role in the creation of a secondary Fixed-Income market for bond trading to increase trading channels and improved price discovery for Investors and Issuers.

We are developing standardized digital platforms to meet rapidly changing client needs at the right scale and effectively engaging our clients across digital channels.
