The Ghana Export-Import Bank (GEXIM) has recorded significant growth in its financial portfolio over the past decade, with its loan book rising from US$68 million in 2016 to US$278 million by the fourth quarter of 2025.
The bank was established in 2016 with the aim of helping the country's import and export sector.
Chief Executive of GEXIM, Hon. Sylvester Adinam Mensah, disclosed this during his keynote address on Day One of the bank’s international conference marking its 10th anniversary.
"Over the past decade, GEXIM has made measurable institutional progress. Our loan book grew from US$68 million in 2016 to US$278 million by the fourth quarter of 2025, with 147 beneficiary companies across the country."
He revealed that the bank has supported 147 beneficiary companies across the country, underscoring its role in strengthening productive capacity and export development.
“Our journey reflects a deliberate commitment to building a resilient institution that responds to the evolving needs of Ghana’s economy,” he added.
The Chief Executive noted that the growth trajectory signals not only financial expansion but also the deepening impact of GEXIM’s interventions in key sectors of the economy.
The disclosure formed part of broader reflections at the conference, which is examining strategies to reposition the bank for the next phase of Ghana’s trade and industrial transformation.
