At the Bank Square today, the Bank of Ghana officially relaunched its Cyber and Information Security Directive, reaffirming its commitment to safeguarding Ghana’s rapidly evolving digital financial ecosystem.
Delivering the welcome address, First Deputy Governor Dr. Zakari Mumuni stressed the importance of resilience in the financial sector. “The Bank has taken deliberate steps to strengthen the stability of the country’s financial ecosystem. Cybersecurity is no longer a technical issue, it is a matter of national and economic security,” he said.
Chairing the event, Governor Dr. Johnson Pandit Asiama underscored the initiative’s central role in the Bank’s regulatory philosophy. “This theme is not just a slogan, but the central pillar of the Bank’s regulatory philosophy,” he remarked, adding that innovations such as mobile money, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence have transformed financial access and inclusion over the past decade.
The relaunch signals a renewed commitment to ensuring that technological innovation is matched with strong safeguards, protecting Ghana’s financial ecosystem in an increasingly digital age.
