Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) are considered the lifeblood of the Ghanaian especially as they are primarily considered the drivers of innovation, employment, and sustainable economic development and with women predominantly leading this economy. To ensure the sustainable development of this sector, it is important to create opportunities for MSMEs such as access to finance, which is frequently identified as a critical barrier to the sector’s growth.

Financial Institutions in Ghana are now positioning themselves as key partners for this valuable market segment by making available to them specially designed financial products and services that meet their particular needs.

This 2-hour webinar is structured to therefore address the issues affecting the sector’s growth hinged on the need for financial literacy/education. This webinar will address how UMB and other financial institutions can harness financial education as the most effective tool for addressing financial inclusion for women-owned SME businesses.

The segment will include providing the women-owned SMEs with the knowledge, understanding, skills, and confidence needed to make financial decisions. Participants after this webinar are expected to gain a better understanding of the relevance of their individual and business growth through financial education. They will be better equipped with an understanding of financial products and concepts; develop the skills and confidence to become more aware of financial risks and opportunities, make informed choices, know where to go for help, and to take other effective actions to create wealth and improve their financial wellness.
