The Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Export-Import Bank (GEXIM), Sylvester Adinam Mensah, has revealed that the Bank’s income collections have more than doubled over the past decade, highlighting its growing financial strength and operational impact.
Speaking at GEXIM’s 10th anniversary international conference in Accra on Wednesday, Mr Mensah disclosed that income collections rose from less than US$34 million annually in 2016 to over US$71 million by the end of 2025.
He said the growth reflects the Bank’s expanding role in supporting production, value addition, and export development through targeted financial and trade-related interventions. “GEXIM’s mandate goes beyond financing; it is about strengthening the foundations that make Ghanaian businesses competitive in international markets,” he added.
Mr Mensah noted that alongside the rise in income, the Bank’s loan book also grew significantly, increasing from US$68 million to US$278 million within the same period, supporting approximately 147 businesses across the country.
“At the same time, we strengthened governance arrangements for portfolio companies, introduced structured technical support for clients, and aligned our strategy with Ghana’s food security and industrialisation priorities,” he said.
