Accra, Sept. 30, GNA – To complement its various interventions in helping to reduce the negative impact of COVID-19 in Ghana, Fidelity Bank has introduced an auto loan package for members of the Ghana Medical Association.
The package provides the members of the Ghana Medical Association, who are at the forefront of the pandemic, with access to brand new vehicles from selected auto dealers at exceptional rates.
A statement from Fidelity Bank and copied to the Ghana News Agency on Wednesday said.
Mr Julian Opuni, the Managing Director of Fidelity Bank Ghana, was quoted as saying: “At Fidelity Bank, we recognise that there has never been a more critical time to exemplify our brand promise of ‘Together We’re More’ than currently when our frontline workers need our support as they continue to do their best to save lives.
“Our auto loan initiative for healthcare workers is our way of appreciating them for their tireless efforts in handling COVID-19 cases.”
He added: “Together with our automobile partners, we are taking the necessary steps to provide support to members of the Ghana Medical Association at a time when they are sacrificing so much for our country.”
Mr Opuni said Ghana Medical Association members who received their salaries through Fidelity Bank or opted for direct payroll deduction to Fidelity Bank to service the facility, might apply for this wonderful offer to receive special benefits.
