The Brakwa Breman Rural Bank has disbursed 483 million cedis to 69 women groups in the Asikuma-Odoben-Brakwa District between January and June.
The groups, mostly pretty traders grouped between 25 and 50 members, received between 2 and 5 million cedis each as micro finance and are expected to refund them within 4 months.
Paul C. Arthur, Supervisor manager of the Bank said that repayment was encouraging.
Mr. Arthur advised individual artisans, traders and farmers to form groups and open accounts with the bank to qualify them to access micro credit.
