Accra: Ecobank Ghana Limited and the Agricultural Development Bank (ADB) have called on the Ghana Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA) in a bid to strengthen business relations and explore deeper collaboration.

According to Ghana News Agency, the first visit took place on Wednesday, June 4, when a delegation from Ecobank, led by Mr. Joseph Ankamah, Acting Head of Corporate Banking, met Rev. Stephen Wilfred Arthur, Acting Director-General of the GCAA, and his executive team at the Authority’s premises.

The following day, Thursday, June 5, Professor Ferdinand Ahiakpor, Deputy Managing Director of ADB, led his team to engage the GCAA in a similar business meeting.

During both engagements, Rev.

He noted that the Authority looked forward to elevating its existing relations with the two banks into stronger partnerships that aligned with Ghana’s aviation growth ambitions.

The visiting bank officials congratulated Rev. Arthur on his recent appointment as Acting Director-General and wished him success in his new leadership role. They affirmed their institutions’ commitment to building sustainable, long-term business relations with public institutions like the GCAA.

The statement emphasized that both banks viewed the visits as part of a broader initiative to foster strategic institutional partnerships contributing to national development through collaboration with key regulatory bodies.
