The Bank of Ghana (BoG) has announced a strategic shift in its supervisory framework, integrating business model analysis into regular assessments of banks.
This move is aimed at identifying emerging risks early and enabling timely policy and regulatory interventions.
According to Dr. Johnson Asiama, Governor of the Bank of Ghana, the initiative will allow supervisors to gain deeper insights into how banks operate, their revenue streams, risk exposures, and long-term sustainability.
“Business model analysis will now form an embedded part of supervisory assessment, supporting the early identification of emerging risks and enabling timely policy and supervisory interventions,” Dr. Asiamah stated.
The central bank explained that by closely monitoring how banks generate income, manage costs, and respond to changing market conditions, it can better anticipate vulnerabilities and guide institutions toward stronger risk management practices.
The new approach is expected to enhance sector stability, improve governance, and foster a more resilient banking industry capable of supporting Ghana’s economic growth while protecting depositors and other stakeholders.
