Whilst in Ghana, he paid a courtesy call on President, Nana Addo Danquah Akufo-Addo and had meetings with key stakeholders.
During the visit, in addition to interacting with staff, Mr Winters participated in a highly engaging round-table discussion on current global and local economic trends.
The session was moderated by Dr Emmanuel Kumah, Board Chairman of Standard Chartered Bank Ghana Limited. Guests at the discussion were key policymakers, industry stakeholders as well as clients of the Bank.
