Isnt it remarkable that one economic constituent is publicly credited with so much potential, yet seems
deprived of many of the opportunities that will enable it realise that potential? That is precisely the
circumstances of SMEs.
Anytime and everywhere in the world,
when the spotlight is turned on this
rather large group of diverse economic
players, very interesting patterns
emerge. Decision-makers in
governments, policy makers and
implementers, international
development agencies, including
bilateral and multilateral organisations,
multinational companies whose value
chains are littered with many SMEs,
bankers, insurers, etc. have all mounted
the podium around the world at
different times and spoken of potential,
successes, failures and challenges of
SMEs.
They have also spoken of the good
experiences and the frustrations of
entities that have conducted business
with SMEs.
A common theme that is consistently
re-echoed, however, is the firm belief
that, for most economies, SMEs
represent sprawling fields of economic
resources waiting to be discovered and
tapped.
The above picture is no different from
Ghana. Across different government
administrations in our countrys history,
SMEs have held a special place in the
political or national dialogue. Indeed,
various programmes have been
designed and implemented by
government and the countrys
development partners in the past. Many
of such programmes are still being
implemented today. These programmes
have yielded dividends of different
forms and scale. But the general view is
that the power of the SME has barely

industry. 77% of banks participating in
the survey ranked the importance of
deposits to their business as number 1 or
2.
The proportion of banks counting
transaction banking among their most
favoured or important sources of
economic/commercial benefits for banks
increased marginally from 63% (top 3,
at present) to 67% (top 2, in the future).
Lending to SMEs dropped in relative
terms as an important source of
economic benefits for banks, as 54% of
respondents ranked this source to be of
high importance. This contrasts with the
current much higher proportion of 82% of
survey respondents.

Conclusion
There is a general agreement that SMEs
hold a lot of potential and could serve as
a powerful catalyst for economic
growth, employment, broad-based
wealth creation, women empowerment,
and poverty reduction. Today, in Ghana,
that potential is being stifled because of
the lack of financial inclusion.
Banking in Ghana is one industry that
continues to experience significant
growth and remains one of the most
profitable.

Monetary sector
Broad money supply including foreign
currency deposits (M2+) grew by 24.3%
in 2012, compared with 33.2% in 2011.
By the end of December 2012, M2+
equalled GH22,620.5m, compared to
GH18,195.1m at the end of 2011.
The slower growth in broad money may
be attributed to the higher rates for
treasury bills and Government notes
and bills, which were more attractive
than demand deposits or savings. With
Government having bid up lending rates
through their activities in the Open
Market Operations, credit to the private
sector became more expensive.
Interest rates
The Bank of Ghana policy rate stood at
13.5% in February 2012 and increased
to 14.5% in April 2012. The rate was
revised upwards to 15% in June 2012
and remained unchanged till it was
revised to 16% in May 2013 as a result of
the elevation of the inflation outlook
risks.
Interest rates on 91-day Treasury bill
rate rose from 10.7% in December 2011
to 22.4 % in June 2012 and increased
marginally in the second half year to
23.1%.
Inflation
Headline inflation inched up from 8.6%
in 2011 to 8.8% in 2012. Although the
inflation rate for the 2012 missed the
target of 8.5%, it remained within the
target band of 8.52% in spite of the
exchange rate and fiscal challenges. In

Exchange rates
On the currency market, the cedi
recorded mixed outturns against the
worlds major trading currencies.
Between January and May 2012, the
value of the Ghana cedi fell in the face of
intense demand pressures for foreign
exchange fuelled by strong import
demand and premature redemption of
portfolio investments by non-residents.
The cedi depreciated on the Interbank
Market by 17.5% against the US dollar in
2012, compared to 4.97% in 2011.

Return to shareholders
46 PwC
Return on assets
Driven by an 85% growth in total
industry net profits from GH508m in
2011 to GH940m in 2012, the
Industrys Return on Assets (ROA)
improved from 2.4% in 2011 to 3.5% in
2012. This profitability was largely
driven by interest income earned on
investment securities and the loan
portfolio.
Total assets grew by 28% from
GH21.1b in 2011 to GH27.1b in 2012.
This was funded primarily by a 29%
growth in deposits from GH16.1b in
2011 to GH20.7b. Other sources of
funding were borrowings which
increased by 44% from GH955 m in
2011 to GH1.37b in 2012 and
additional capital injection of GH447 m
in 2012.
Baroda, UBA,GTB, SCB and BBGL were
the top performers recording ROAs
above 5%. Baroda posted the strongest
return as it optimised its returns from
holdings in government securities and
managed to maintain its cost to income
ratio at 0.1, well below the industry ratio
of 0.5.
Notwithstanding its stellar
performance, Baroda, accounts for less
than 1% of total industry profits before
tax. Its performance may not be
sustainable because its income stream
depends largely on the yield from
government securities which can
fluctuate.

Return on Equity
The economic challenges of 2012 did
not have a significant adverse impact on
the banking industry as it recorded an
average of 23.8% return on equity.
There has been a steady increase in ROE
over the past four years but it recorded
the biggest leap in 2012.
As the deadline for the minimum capital
requirement closed at the end of
December 2012, total industry
shareholders funds increased by 38% to
