Barclays has operated in Ghana for over 90 years and has been closely associated with all phases of the country's development. The first Barclays branch in Ghana, the High Street Branch, was commissioned on St. Valentine’s Day, February 14 1917. Initially wholly owned by Barclays Plc, the government of Ghana in 1972 acquired 40% in Barclays Ghana. This reduced to 10% and eventually in June 2003, Barclays PLC acquired the remaining 10% shares of the government of Ghana, making Barclays Ghana a wholly owned subsidiary of Barclays PLC. Barclays Bank of Ghana Limited currently has over 140 branches and 118 ATMs, including 9 world class Prestige Centres, and a Premier Centre. The bank has presence in all the 10 regions of the country which makes it easier to do business with us. It has kept pace with the development of Ghana and has consistently maintained excellent performance. In recognition, it has received several awards over the 91 years of its existence in Ghana and has maintained the position of the most profitable bank for six consecutive years.
