- W1485637777 abstract "In the 1980's as part of their structural adjustment programs, many Sub-Sahara African (SSA) countries embarked on financial sector reform to remove the control of interest rates and credit ceilings in order to boost private savings for growth and poverty alleviation. In 1987, Ghana became the first Sub-Sahara African country to lead other African countries in embracing a comprehensive financial sector reform as part of its structural adjustment program, which was initiated in 1983. As part of Ghana's financial sector reform which was supported by the World Bank and the IMF, the government launched the Financial Institutions' Sector Adjustment Program, hereafter referred to as (FINSAP), to address the endemic problems of the financial sector. The main objectives of FINSAP were: (a) to enhance the soundness of the banking institutions by improving the regulatory environment and strengthen bank supervision; (b) to restructure financially insolvent banking institutions; (c) to increase savings mobilization; and (d) to increase the efficiency of credit allocation by the ban king system. As part of the reform program, the government control of interest rates and credit ceilings have been relaxed. The banking sector has been restructured and non-per forming assets of the banking sector have been replaced by government bonds. New banking laws have been promulgated to strengthen the banking sector. Nine new banks and other non-banking financial institutions were established to compete with the traditional commercial banks. The introduction of computer information technology and the automatic teller machines (ATM) by many banks in Ghana have provided an environment for greater volume of savings mobilization in Ghana. These reforms have had considerable impact on the capacity of the banking sec tor to mobilize savings for growth and development. However, almost a decade after the launching of the reform, many critics argue that the reform measures have not succeeded in promoting financial deepening and increased financial savings in the banking system.1" @default.
