The United Bank for Africa Ghana Limited has opened a new branch at Tarkwa in the Western Region making it the 28th business office in the country.
The new branch is part of the Bank’s expansion program to cover almost all regions in the country, whilst coming closer to customers who have contributed to UBA’s success over the past 12 years.

The new facility offers convenience to customers of UBA in Tarkwa and its surrounding towns with a full bouquet of products of the Bank.

Mr. Johnson Olakumni, Head of Digital Banking, who spoke on behalf of the Chief Executive of Officer of UBA Ghana, Mrs. Abiola Bawuah, said the initiative was also to save the teeming customers who before now had to travel down to Takoradi for their transactions.

"Our presence in 18 other African countries has given us the needed leverage to offer superior value to our customers. We are delighted to be partnering with the people of Tarkwa in their development agenda," he added.

"We have committed personnel waiting to serve you as we encourage everyone to start a relationship with us,” he said.

Nana Fosu III, Krontihene of Apinto Divisional Council, assured UBA of his support and encouraged the Bank to keep up with the industry’s good practices, which has pushed them standing tall among competitors.

He promised opening an account with UBA as a sign of the Council's support and expressed the hope that the gesture would encourage the people to bank with UBA.

Mr. Charles Opoku Amoateng, the Safety Manager for Goldfields who spoke on behalf of customers at UBA Tarkwa, praised the Bank for its unparalleled customer service.

“It was a delight on the first day we opened our account as a family. Each of us got our instant prepaid cards in addition to a MasterCard.

“We have been experiencing good customer service from that day and the experience has been remarkable. I think it is a good place to bank and I encourage all to start saving with UBA,” he said.
