Golden Pride Savings and Loans Ltd has partnered
with HFC Bank to provide Electronic-Banking
services to its customers.

This partnership affords customers of the two-year
old Savings and Loans company owned by the Ghana
Mineworkers Union the opportunity to utilize the
over 47 ATMs of HFC Bank across the country.

Speaking with Joy Business at the launch of the
E-Banking services Board Chairman of Golden Pride,
Prince William Ankrah said the aim of the company
is the become a universal bank by 2019.

He said E-Banking would “provide our customers
with electronic banking services to enable them
easily bank with us wherever they may be. This is
one of our flagship programmes because it will
enable us target a wider constituent of the market
within the non-banking sector.”

Mr. Ankrah indicated that Golden Pride Savings and
Loans is providing a lot of support for Small and
Medium Enterprises by giving them a lot of loans
– an initiative to enable them have enough
capital.

According to him, the company has been able to
mobilize 53million cedis over a period of two
years with five branches and it’s resolved in
achieving great success.

He added that the vision of the company “is to
join the Universal Banking landscape and our hope
is that in the next four years this should be
actualized.

Although the company is owned by the Ghana Mine
Workers Union, the Board Chairman points out
“the focus is not only on mine workers but also
on teachers, nurses, etc. What we need our
customers and interested parties to do is to
deposit monies into the company to have this
achieved.”

Mr. Charles Bonsu, General Manager of HFC Bank,
providers of the E-Banking platform, said the bank
is extremely excited to partner Golden Pride
Savings and Loans to offer quality service to its
customers.

This he said affords customers of the two banks
the opportunity to share their facilities because
after the launch, customers of both institutions
would have the opportunity to use their cards in
all ATMs across the country.
