But according to Samuel Acquah, Chief Risk Officer at First National Bank, the lived reality for many Ghanaian retirees reveals a gap between expectation and experience, requiring a fresh approach to financial planning. Speaking on the theme Redefining Financial Freedom for Retirement, Mr Acquah said while Ghana’s Three-Tier Pension system exists to support workers in both formal and informal sectors, most individuals still rely on informal planning methods that fall short of ensuring adequate retirement income. Many pensioners, he noted, cite low salaries, limited financial knowledge, and poor access to information as barriers to effective preparation.

A number of leaders in Ghana preach virtues but tend to practise vices. Furthermore, the perspectives of some leaders...
