Customers of the Adabraka branch of Unique Trust (UT) Bank have threatened to halt all forms of financial dealings with the bank after its license was revoked.

The customers who besieged the premises of UT Bank in the early hours of Monday, expressed their frustration in relation to the recent takeover by the Ghana Commercial Bank (GCB), hinting that they were not pre-informed about the situation while threatening to withdraw their cash and close their UT bank accounts.

In simple language terms, the action has been taken against these affected banks due to their “terrible” financial situation and their inability to perform within the banking industry.

A press statement released by the BoG revealed that it (BoG) has approved a Purchase and Assumption transaction with GCB Bank Ltd that transfers all deposits and selected assets of UT Bank Ltd and Capital Bank Ltd to GCB Bank Ltd.

However, the majority of customers GhanaWeb.com spoke to were uncomfortable with the takeover by GCB, claiming they might not like the new management as compared to that of Unique Trust.
