Government has announced a fresh GH¢401 million capital injection into the Women’s Development Bank to expand access to affordable finance for women-owned micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs).

This new capital injection is in addition to the GH¢51.3 million seed fund allocated to the Women’s Development Bank in 2025.

Presenting the 2026 Budget Statement and Economic Policy to Parliament, Finance Minister Dr Cassiel Ato Forson said the initiative is part of the government’s broader strategy to crowd in private finance, strengthen inclusive growth, and empower women entrepreneurs as key drivers of job creation and innovation.
