Ecobank Group Chairman Emmanuel Ikazoboh said: “Over the last few years, we have taken strong measures to ‘secure the foundations’ of Ecobank and the Board is confident that our strategy, and the actions that we have taken so far, have positioned the company for sustainable future growth with a return on equity above the cost of equity.”
