Stanbic Bank Ghana says it is poised to deepen its consumer and corporate banking activities in the country, having used the last six years to expand its reach across the country.

The Managing Director of the bank, Mr Alhassan Andani, said the bank had spent the last few years to build branches, augment its human resource and strengthen its interface with customers through cutting-edge technology and processes, which had made the bank ready to deepen its offering to the public.
