CAL registered 13.7% profit in 2020
CAL Bank recorded a 13.7% year-on-year growth in profit to GH275 million in 2020.
This was influenced largely by non-funded transactions, which shot up from GH27 million in December 2019 to GHc130 million in December 2019.
The bank’s earnings from net interest income and fees and commissions declined because it placed embargo on loans and advancements when covid-19 pandemic began.
