South Africa’s central bank is preparing the most far-reaching overhaul of the country’s cash system in decades, seeking to cut the high cost of managing physical money while improving access for low-income and rural communities that remain heavily dependent on cash. The proposals, led by the South African Reserve Bank (SARB), would fundamentally reshape how cash is distributed, managed and accessed across Africa’s largest economy.

Egypt has signed a $200 million investment agreement with Qatar’s Al Mana Holding to establish a facility producing sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) from used cooking oil, marking a significant step in Cairo’s push to attract foreign capital while advancing its clean energy ambitions.

For decades, insurance claims processing was synonymous with paperwork, long queues, missing files, and frustrating delays. Policyholders often waited weeks or even months for claims to be assessed and paid, not necessarily because insurers were unwilling, but because the system itself was slow, manual, and fragmented. Digitization is changing that reality. Across the insurance industry, digital tools are dramatically reducing the time it takes to report, investigate, approve, and settle claims.

Workplace safety is often discussed in terms of helmets, warning signs, training manuals, and compliance checklists. While these are essential, one of the most powerful — and often overlooked — drivers of workplace safety is insurance. Beyond paying compensation after accidents, insurance plays a central role in shaping how organisations identify risks, enforce safety standards, and protect workers from physical, financial, and psychological harm.

For many policyholders in Ghana, the most confusing part of insurance is not buying the policy — it is what happens after a claim is reported. Delays, questions, inspections, and document requests often create the impression that insurers are trying to avoid paying claims. In reality, what most people are experiencing is the claims investigation process, a structured system designed to verify losses, prevent fraud, and ensure fair payouts.

For many vehicle owners, especially in emerging markets, comprehensive car insurance is often viewed as an unnecessary luxury. The thinking is simple: “Why pay more every year when third-party insurance is cheaper and legally sufficient?” On the surface, this argument appears logical. But over time, it proves to be one of the most expensive misconceptions in motor insurance. Comprehensive car insurance is not about paying more — it is about…

Insurance is one of the most misunderstood financial products in everyday life. Many people buy insurance because it is required — by law, by an employer, or by a lender — without fully understanding how it actually works. Terms like premium, deductible, and policy limit are often mentioned in insurance conversations, yet few policyholders can confidently explain what they mean or how they affect real-life claims.

In today’s increasingly digital financial landscape, Ghanaian consumers and businesses rely more than ever on Mobile Money as part of their daily financial routines. Whether you are an individual tracking monthly spending, a trader preparing records for tax purposes, or an entrepreneur applying for a loan, one document is becoming essential: the MTN MoMo statement.

For millions of Ghanaians, MTN Mobile Money (MoMo) has become more than just a digital wallet — it is an essential financial tool used for business transactions, bill payments, remittances, savings, and everyday purchases. As MoMo adoption continues to grow, so does the need for accurate user information. Updating your MTN MoMo details is not only a requirement by regulators such as the Bank of Ghana and the National Communications Authority, but it is also critical for protecting your wallet from fraud, ensuring smooth transactions, and maintaining your access to mobile financial services.

Mobile money has become one of the most reliable financial tools in Ghana, powering daily transactions for millions of people and enabling fast, convenient access to cashless payments. With MTN Mobile Money (MoMo) leading the market, it is no surprise that many rely on their MoMo wallet for airtime purchases, bill payments, shopping, salary withdrawals, and sending and receiving money. However, every so often, users find themselves unexpectedly locked out of their wallets — a frustrating situation that can stall business, interrupt personal transactions, or even create panic when money is urgently needed.

Mobile Money remains one of the most transformative innovations in Ghana’s financial sector.
