He dedicated the awards to the Board, Management, Staff and Customers of the Bank, thanking them for their commitment and support towards the progress as well as achievements the Bank has chalked in the last three years.
He further explained that these awards come with great pride especially at the apex of his over 42 years of service to Republic Bank, out of which three years have been dedicated to the growth and development of key strategic pillars in Ghana. “The Bank has over the years been developing flexible mortgage payment options, customer-centric digital service solutions and banking innovations to improve the customers’ service experience through the introduction of its suite of digital services, seasonal campaign loans and recently the launch of four fantastic Republic VISA Credit Cards on the Ghanaian market. These innovations make the banking experience seamless, less stressful and value-adding for both our existing and potential customers. To us, serving retail and business clients means engaging in conversations and creating solutions that meet their needs through a simple, yet effective, product and services suite”, Mr. Antar said.
