The subsidiaries, Guaranty Trust Bank Ghana Limited (GTB) and FBNBank Ghana Limited (FBN) were suspended due to malpractices, including fraudulent documentation.

A statement issued by the Bank of Ghana and released on its website said the licences will be restored after one month if the banks were able to put in place effective control measures.

The statement read: “Bank of Ghana has suspended the Foreign Exchange Trading Licences of Guaranty Trust Bank Ghana Limited (GTB) and FBNBank Ghana Limited (FBN), effective 18th March 2024, for a period of one (1) month, in accordance with section 11 (2) of the Foreign Exchange Act 2006, (Act 723).

“This is as a result of various breaches of the foreign exchange market regulations, including fraudulent documentation in their foreign exchange operations which have come to the attention of Bank of Ghana.
