TF
Financial Services Company Limited was incorporated
in 2007 as a private limited liability company
to operate as a financial services firm.
It is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Teachers’
Fund. The authorised business of the Company
involves
• Consumer Finance
• Short Term Finance
• Trade & Business Finance; and
• Subscribing to Short Term Securities
The target market
of the company has been defined as salaried
workers employed by the private sector and
the civil service sectors of the economy.
The core activity of the company involves
the provision of loans to this market segment.
TF Financial Services would also extend
into the provision of other financial services
in response to market demands and growth
potential in accordance with Bank of Ghana
(BOG) licensing requirements.
TF Financial Services
was established by the Teachers Fund of
GNAT. The Fund is currently worth over GHC
30 million represented by investments in
securities such as treasury bills, bonds,
listed equities, private placements, loans
and facilities to members, real estate projects
and other investments. Currently, the Fund
has its largest investment in loans and
facilities to its contributors. This is
currently valued in excess of ¢100
billion. New loans of approximately ¢9.0
billion are disbursed on a monthly basis
across the country.
The Fund’s
investments are in accordance with its investment
objectives of investing a portion of its
funds in long term holdings. It is in line
with this objective that the Board of Trustees
of the Fund resolved to establish a wholly
owned subsidiary (TF Financial Services
Ltd.) to operate as a financial services
firm licensed by the BoG to provide loans
to the general public. It is envisaged that
TF Financial Services Ltd would eventually
be converted into a Bank owned by Teachers
(Teachers Bank)
