Fidelity Bank Ghana GSE listing efforts

Overview

Fidelity Bank Ghana has initiated steps to transition from a privately owned institution to a publicly listed entity. The bank has requested shareholder approval to launch an Initial Public Offering (IPO) and list its ordinary shares on the Main Market of the Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE).

Proposed measures include authorizing the board to manage the listing process, transferring 36 million cedis to share capital, and executing a free issue of up to 732.25 million ordinary shares to existing shareholders on a pro-rata basis. The bank also intends to adopt new statutes to meet public listing requirements. This move follows reported financial growth, with the bank noting a profit before tax of GH¢1.46 billion for 2025.
