Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Bond, George Ofosuhene, who received the award on behalf of the company, beamed with smiles when the citation accompanying the award was being read.
“In the midst of all the intense competition, you stood out with an 18.6 percent of market share which raked in a total revenue of GH?29,775,904 in the year under review
“You managed to take savings and loans to a new pedestal through the provision of relationship-based financial services that focus on value-driven, innovative products and service, branch network efficiencies, strong branding and exceptional coordination.”
Commenting on the award in an interview with journalists later, Mr Ofosuhene attributed the success of Bond Savings & Loans Limited to its customers who, over the years, have made this feat achievable.
“We appreciate it and we are also very glad to be able to achieve this.”
He commended hardworking staff of the company for their immense contributions over the past nine years.
