Managing Director of GCB Bank PLC, Kofi Adomakoh has resigned.
The Bank has officially appointed Farihan Alhassan, a distinguished banking professional with two decades of experience, as its new Managing Director.
Mr. Alhassan comes to GCB Bank with a remarkable history, having most recently worked as the Executive in Charge of Business and Commercial Banking at Stanbic Bank Ghana. There, he distinguished himself by crafting innovative strategies, boosting operational efficiency, and enhancing customer engagement.
With over 20 years of experience in the banking sector, Alhassan is well-positioned to drive strategic growth and innovation at GCB Bank.
His tenure at Stanbic was especially notable for advancing the interests of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
Alhassan’s career achievements include becoming the youngest regional manager at Barclays Bank (now Absa) at the age of 26, a role that set the stage for his rapid rise in the banking industry. He later served as Head of Retail and Distribution at Absa, where his leadership style was lauded for its focus on people-first principles and operational excellence.
In a statement, GCB Bank expressed confidence in Alhassan’s ability to lead the institution into a transformative period.
His appointment is expected to focus on strengthening the bank’s market position, expanding financial inclusion, and driving innovative solutions to meet customer needs.
This leadership transition marks a pivotal moment for GCB Bank as it seeks to navigate the evolving banking landscape under Alhassan’s stewardship.
