The LEAS Lead at GCB Bank PLC, Linus Kumi, has underscored that the Bank\u2019s partnership with the Ghana Sports Fund is centred on building strong institutional systems rather than offering short-term support.<\/p>\n

Speaking during the strategic session in Accra, Mr Kumi said the collaboration is structured around knowledge transfer and long-term capacity development.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis collaboration is designed to transfer knowledge, not create dependency,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

He outlined a comprehensive support framework provided by GCB Bank, which includes:<\/p>\n

Developing a comprehensive Investment Policy Statement (IPS)<\/p>\n

Designing a funding roadmap and stakeholder engagement strategy<\/p>\n

Establishing measurable impact metrics<\/strong><\/p>\n

Providing digital banking and reporting tools to enhance transparency<\/p>\n

According to Mr Kumi, sustainability for the Ghana Sports Fund must rest on three key pillars: diversified and predictable funding, strong governance and accountability, and professional financial stewardship that preserves and grows capital.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen governance is strong, and funding is diversified, impact becomes measurable and sustainable,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n

By strengthening these systems, he said, GCB Bank aims to position the Fund not merely as a disbursement channel but as an investment-ready institution capable of supporting Ghana\u2019s sports ecosystem for generations.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is about building a structure that endures,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
