Ecobank Ghana

Ecobank Ghana was incorporated on January 9, 1989, as a private limited liability company under the Organizations Code to engage in the business of banking.

The bank was formed on February 19, 1990. In December 2011, Bank of Ghana, the central bank of the country, which also functions as the national banking regulator, gave approval for Ecobank Transnational to acquire 100% interest in The Trust Bank (TTB), another licensed commercial bank. At the time, the total asset valuation of TTB was approximately US$119 million (GH¢ 220 million). Ecobank has successfully merged TTB and EBG. The new bank is known as Ecobank Ghana Limited.

Ecobank Ghana PLC has a board of directors and an Executive Management team for the running of the West African subsidiary bank in Ghana. The bank's activities are largely organized around three key areas in the banking sector: consumer/retail banking, commercial/business banking and asset management and investment banking.
