The richest investor on the Ghana Stock Exchange, Daniel Ofori, has gained over 13.2 million from his stake in Socit Gnrale Bank Ghana PLC this year, thanks to the sustained surge in the banks shares and gains from the strengthening Ghanaian Cedi against the U.S. dollar.
Ofori holds 48.24 million shares in the Accra-based bank, representing a 6.8 percent stake. That makes him the largest private shareholder and the third-largest overall, behind Socit Gnrale Financial Services Holding and Ghanas Social Security and National Insurance Trust.
Shares climb lifts Oforis holdings above 18 million
