  Mr Henry Lamptey, General Manager, Corporate Banking of the GN Bank, emphasized that the bank had not been sold except that it had changed its name.
  
  He assured customers of highest standard of integrity, loyalty and absolute honesty by aiming to become the “best big bank” by the end of 2015.
  
  “In line with corporate mission we do not intend to metamorphose into a high street bank but to remain the people bank,” Mr Lamptey said.

  Foolish advice. Banks exist to make money. They are not charities. It is useless to advice banks prioritize agriculture and expect results. Your stupid government should have used the millions of cedis and dollars they paid as judgment debt to recapitalize the Agricultural Development Bank (if it still exists). These are special-purpose banks whose performance should not be measured, at least in the short term, by the profits they show on their financial statement. That is how countries develop the Agriculture. There should be some type of government credit program or a separate national entity underwritten by the useless government. This is what the Federal Farm Credit System does in the United States.
