In an interview with the Graphic Business, Mr Adomakoh noted that to be the leading bank in Ghana “means that you are going to be challenged a lot and you must do things more positively”.
“This award inspires me and my bank and all the staff that people are still watching and observing best practice. So this award motivates me to lead in a responsible manner and to get GCB to be a centre of excellence when it comes to banking,” he said.
Mr Adomakoh said the agenda was to make GCB the most dominant bank in Ghana and “we are on course to making GCB the centre of excellence when it comes to financial services and to see GCB go beyond the borders of Ghana and venturing into regional banking by taking advantage of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA)”.
He said the objective was to get the best for the bank, its shareholders and the staff.
