Dr. Jonathan Nicholas Anaglo

The University of Ghana Co-operative Credit Union has held its 2018 Annual General Meeting on October 18, 2018 at the University’s Great Hall.

Dr. Jonathan Nicholas Anaglo, the outgoing Board Chairman of Board provided a healthy membership status and financial statement of the UG Credit Union, comprising the total assets and deposits, adding that the total membership which stood at 4,979 in 2014 rose to 7,370 in 2018 representing 48 per cent increase.

He noted that the new Credit Union edifice, which construction began in 2017, was completed with a total cost GH¢3.9 million. Dr. Anaglo acknowledged that during his tenure, the Credit Union Association of Ghana (CUA) in 2016, declared the University of Ghana Co-operative Credit Union the largest and overall best Credit Union in the country.

As part of its corporate social responsibility, the UG Credit Union made donations to the University of Professional Studies Accra, the Legon Police Station and the University of Ghana Alumni Association.

Mr. Mohammed Saani, an official from Co-operative Crédit Union (CUA), cautioned officers of the Union to tread cautiously in their dealings with other institutions due to the current turbulence in the financial sector.
