At a time when the financial sector is recuperating from a potential crisis, a recent report has ranked three 3 Ghanaian owned banks as most credible.
According to the latest ranking, Fidelity Bank, Ghana Commercial Bank, and GHL Bank, which all are Ghanaian owned banks all made the first twenty most credible banks in Ghana.
The ranking was done by a team of technical analysts at Konfidants, a management consulting company based in Accra, Johannesburg and Geneva and was based on an assessment of their credibility using Credmap technology- www.credmap.com.
Explaining the details of the credibility ranking, a statement announcing the launch of the report said the ranking is “A novel “credibility-rating” engine that is capable of combining crowdrating and data mining to generate “credibility scores” of individuals and institutions using pooled data about their track record, history, commentary, biography, popular sentiment and reputation. Credmap’s algorithms mash the data together to distill the complex information into compact rankings, scores and benchmarks.”
Key amongst the index used was the quality of bank boards and senior management personnel.
