The Ghana Interbank Payment and Settlement Systems Limited (GhIPSS) has paid GH¢14.58 million in dividend to the Bank of Ghana for the 2025 financial year, marking another profitable year for the country’s national electronic payments infrastructure provider.

The dividend was presented on July 1, 2026, at The Bank Square after the company successfully held its Annual General Meeting and approved its 2025 financial results.

For the Bank of Ghana, which is the sole shareholder of GhIPSS, the payment represents more than just a financial return. It also highlights the growing value of Ghana’s digital payments ecosystem at a time when electronic transactions, mobile money interoperability, instant payments and digital financial services continue to expand across the economy.

Receiving the dividend, the Governor of the Bank of Ghana, Dr Johnson Asiama, described the presentation as an important governance milestone for GhIPSS.

“This ceremony marks an important governance milestone, providing the opportunity for GhIPSS to formally present its approved dividend to its sole shareholder,” he said.

Dr Asiama commended the Board, Management and staff of GhIPSS for what he described as another successful year, noting that the company continues to play a key role in strengthening Ghana’s payment infrastructure.

“I commend the Board, Management and Staff of GhIPSS for this achievement and for their continued commitment to operational excellence, innovation and sound corporate governance,” he added.

He said the Bank of Ghana appreciates not only the dividend payment but also the broader contribution GhIPSS continues to make to the country’s financial sector.

“As shareholder, we appreciate not only the financial return presented today but also the value GhIPSS continues to create through the development of secure, resilient and interoperable payment infrastructure that supports Ghana’s financial sector and the broader economy,” Dr Asiama stated.

The Governor encouraged the Board and Management of GhIPSS to sustain the company’s performance and continue pursuing strategic initiatives that will position the institution for long-term growth.

GhIPSS remains a key pillar in Ghana’s financial technology space. The company provides the national infrastructure that supports secure and interoperable electronic payment services across banks, fintechs and other financial institutions.

For Ghana’s financial sector, the dividend payment is a sign that the country’s digital payments infrastructure is not only becoming more important but is also delivering measurable financial value.
