Therefore, we are hopeful that once the Debt Exchange Program has been concluded (expected settlement date: January 5, 2023), we will be able to access the necessary funds to once again pay withdrawal requests. We are totally reliant on the Government of Ghana to pay us, so we can in turn pay clients\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While&nbsp;\u201cmany of our clients have tried to be patient\u201d, \u201cthere are several clients who have felt the need to abuse our staff physically and verbally, and also threaten their lives as well as their families\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As such, we have no choice but to move to a work-from-home option,\u201d the statement further noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cWhile our offices will be physically closed, we will continue to serve you and process transactions remotely, and all our digital channels will remain open just as we did during Covid. However, we cannot endanger the lives of staff by opening the office without any available liquidity.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>We are fully aware the current crisis in our industry is very concerning, and we continue to ask for your patience during these difficult times. We are very hopeful the Financial Stability Fund or any other Fund that the Government may provide in the interim will provide much-needed relief for you and other investors.
