Bosomtwe Rural Bank Limited at Kuntanase in the Bosomtwe District of Ashanti Region has recorded an impressive growth in all financial indicators in the 2022 year under review. The Bank recorded profit before tax of approximately GH¢2.5 million in the 2022 year under review as against approximately GH¢2million in the previous year representing a satisfactory growth of 19.4% with deposits increasing by 23.94% from about GH¢122million in 2021 to a little over GH¢ 151million in 2022. The impressive growth in deposit of the year under review represents the confidence the general public and customers have in the Bank as well as the hardworking staff in deposit mobilization and inculcating effective culture of saving(s) in the people within the Bank’s operational territories. The Bank’s stated capital grew from approximately GH¢3.9million as at 31st December, 2021 to a little over GH¢3.92million in December 2022, representing a marginal growth of 0.65% which far exceeds the minimum threshold of GH¢1million by over 250% required by all rural banks in Ghana. In view of the marginal growth of the Bank’s share capital coupled with the Board’s resolution to impair some locked-up funds which will consequently have a negative effect on the capital adequacy of the bank, there was a proposition to pass a resolution for a “Rights Issue”. The objective of this resolution was to at least boosts the Bank’s share capital up by thirty percent (30%).
