Accra, Nov. 12, GNA – Ghana International Bank (GHIB) has partnered Daniel Ford International and the Berkeley Group to support African clients seeking UK financial services and information on selected London residential developments.
The collaboration combines GHIB’s international financial services, Daniel Ford International’s property advisory expertise and information on selected residential projects within the Berkeley Group’s portfolio.
A statement copied to the Ghana News Agency said the partnership was announced at an event in Accra, where GHIB outlined its UK-based services and expanding personal banking offerings for affluent African clients.
It cited the Africa Wealth Report 2026, published by New World Wealth, which estimated that Africa had more than 127,000 US-dollar millionaires, each with liquid assets of at least one million dollars.
The report put Nigeria’s millionaire population at about 8,100 and Ghana’s at approximately 2,600, reflecting changing wealth patterns across the continent.
Established in London in 1959, GHIB has served as a financial link between Africa and the United Kingdom for more than six decades, supporting trade, investment and corporate relationships.
The statement said the Bank was expanding its personal banking services to serve high-net-worth individuals, entrepreneurs, business owners and senior executives across Africa.
Under the collaboration, prospective property buyers would receive information on selected residential developments in some of London’s sought-after locations.
Daniel Ford International would provide property advisory services, while GHIB would offer financial services to eligible customers.
Ms Ophelia Attobrah, Chief Banking Officer of GHIB, said the initiative responded to the growing international financial needs of African professionals, entrepreneurs and business leaders.
She said the Bank’s offerings were designed to support customers with their UK financial requirements, including those associated with potential residential property purchases.
Ms Attobrah clarified that GHIB’s role was limited to providing financial services and did not extend to recommending, advising on, arranging or endorsing any particular property purchase.
She said customers would independently decide whether to acquire property and which property to purchase, while Daniel Ford International would provide the related advisory services.
Although launched in Ghana, the initiative was open to existing and prospective GHIB customers across the Bank’s African markets, particularly in West Africa, she said.
Ms Attobrah said the collaboration formed part of the Bank’s commitment to developing solutions that addressed the evolving international financial needs of Africa’s growing affluent population.
