“This award would not have been possible without the esteemed customers of the bank,” he said, adding that, “as with other awards we have won in the past, we dedicate this to our loyal customers and farmers to whom we remain committed to in growing their businesses”.
According to Mr Asiedu, “having won the same award last year is an indication of the bank’s commitment towards the agricultural sector and we hope to continue supporting the sector going into the future”.
The managing director also told customers to expect more innovative and tailor-made products which would boost their businesses.
ADB emerged the best bank in agriculture, forestry and fishing finance at the banking awards held last week to honour deserving universal banks for their achievements within the year under review.
The bank was also the first runner-up in the most Active Ezwich bank category.
The Ghana Banking Awards, organised by Corporate Initiative Ghana (CIG), is regarded as the most prestigious award in the Ghanaian banking industry, which affords winners the opportunity to leverage the laurels received to woo new customers.
ADB continues to commit a substantial portion of its lending portfolio to agriculture and allied sectors.
