In a move that signals robust investor confidence in Ghana’s financial sector, First Atlantic Bank PLC officially rang the bell on the trading floor of the Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE) on Friday, marking its transition to a publicly-listed entity.
The listing ceremony, held on December 19, 2025, was attended by the top brass of the financial community, including the Managing Director of the GSE, Abena Amoah, and the Governor of the Bank of Ghana (BoG), Dr. Johnson Pandit Asiama.
This milestone transforms the bank from a private powerhouse into a public institution, allowing thousands of Ghanaians to own a stake in its growth.
The listing follows a highly successful Initial Public Offering (IPO) that opened in late 2025. Sources close to the transaction reveal that the offer was over-subscribed by approximately 120%, as both institutional investors and retail buyers scrambled to secure shares in the bank.
The capital raised from the listing is earmarked for a massive “Digital and Regional Expansion” project. The bank plans to leverage these fresh funds to:
- Upgrade Core Banking Infrastructure: Enhancing AI-driven mobile banking features.
- Regional Expansion: Strengthening its footprint in the West African sub-region.
- SME Support: Launching a dedicated GH¢500 million credit line for small and medium-sized enterprises.
