flag Ghana finalizes non-interest banking framework by 2025 to boost financial inclusion with ethical, asset-backed finance.

flag The Bank of Ghana is finalizing a non-interest banking framework to boost financial inclusion while maintaining secular neutrality and market fairness. flag Expected by year-end 2025, the framework will apply prudential standards to non-interest institutions, with two license types: one for conventional banks offering non-interest products via dedicated windows, and another for full non-interest banks. flag A phased rollout will initially exclude microfinance and rural banks to ensure stability and capacity building. flag The central bank is coordinating with other regulators to harmonize rules for Sukuk and Takaful, with a capacity-building event planned for December 1, 2025. flag The initiative emphasizes ethical, asset-backed finance and is modeled on successful international systems, aiming to position Ghana as a leader in inclusive, non-interest banking.
