From Strategic Insight to National Guideline: A Journey of Impact in Non-Interest Banking!
We are deeply honoured and humbled to reflect on the role One17 Capital played in supporting the Central Bank of Ghana's visionary drive toward establishing a robust Non-Interest Banking ecosystem.
In October 2025, we had the privilege of hosting a high-level delegation from the Bank and the Securities and Exchange Commission, Ghana, for an immersive training and study tour in Nigeria. Led by John Gartchie Gatsi, the team sought actionable insights from one of Africa’s most dynamic Islamic finance markets.
We extend ou appreciation to all those who participated in curating an intensive program, facilitated by our very own Malam Attahiru Maccido, Mr. Zakari Ahmadu, Mr. Ali Audu Sheriff, covering foundational principles, Shari’ah governance, Sukuk structuring, and Capital Market and Insurance operational frameworks. Representatives from the Nigeria, Mr. Abdulkadir Abbas and NAICOM Mr. Ahmad Kollere and Dr. Isa Ya'u formerly of the CBN Nigeria.
Special thanks to The Chairman of Jaiz Bank MOHAMMEDMUSTAPHA BINTUBE and the immediate past MD Jaiz Bank and Present CEO of Buraq Capital Limited Mal Hassan Usman, CSAA, FCIB, FCA, C**A.
The goal was clear: to equip Ghana with a practical, tested blueprint for ethical, inclusive, and sustainable non-interest finance Banking and Capital Market. Today, we are thrilled to see this collaboration come full circle with the release of the Bank of Ghana’s Exposure Draft: Guideline for the Regulation and Supervision of Non-Interest Banking.
This document is more than a regulatory framework, it is a testament to forward-thinking leadership, cross-border knowledge sharing, and a shared commitment to financial inclusion, integrity, and innovation.
We congratulate Dr. Johnson Pandit Asiama, The Governor of the Bank of Ghana, on this milestone and look forward to continuing our support as Ghana’s ethical finance landscape grows and thrives.
