Rural Banks in Ghana 2021

How many rural banks are in Ghana, and which rural banks in Ghana have been licensed by the Bank of Ghana? This post is a list of all the rural banks in Ghana and their operating cities.

Rural banks are locally owned and managed banks first established in Ghana in 1976 to provide banking services to the rural population, providing credit to small-scale farmers and businesses and supporting development projects.

Surprisingly, rural banks make up the highest proportion of highly profitable companies in Ghana, taking up the biggest share of 2019’s Ghana Club 100 Awards whilst even many notable names were missing from the list to top 100 companies.

As of May 2021, there are currently a total of 144 rural and community banks licensed by the Bank of Ghana. Rural banks in Ghana are supervised by the ARB Apex Bank which serves as a central bank for the rural banks under the main regulator, the Bank of Ghana.
