The Global Lead for Credit Infrastructure at the World Bank, Mahesh Uttamchandani has described as acceptable , government’s intervention \u00a0in the DKM microfinance scam to help customers get back their investments.<\/p>\n

According to him, unlike corporate private entities, an insolvency involving financial institutions like DKM, have larger societal impact which have dire economic implications.<\/p>\n

\u201cA regime for insolvency for financial institutions has to involve the public protection component which is very different from a traditional corporate insolvency…typically one finds a financial institution in insolvency regime involves an element of conserved ownership by the government or an arm of government,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

Over 70,000 customers of DKM microfinance are awaiting payments of their locked up cash after the company suspended operations about a year ago.<\/p>\n

Government through the Registrar General’s department is expected to carry out the repayment exercise.<\/p>\n

The Financial Sector Specialist also explains to Citi Business News<\/strong> international standards permit public protection from government\u2019s due to the strategic importance of such cases.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is acceptable as opposed to a traditional corporate insolvency which in most countries is left to the private sector although even there, it is conducted in a strategically and important buy tadalafil online<\/a> business as happened in the US when in the financial crisis,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

\u201cFinancial institutions have broader societal impact and they need to be treated on an entirely separate regime,\u201d Mahesh Uttamchandani added.<\/p>\n

Mahesh Uttamchandani who was speaking at a round table conference on promoting international insolvency regimes across Africa further implored on regulators to develop efficient regimes and foster economic growth.<\/p>\n

\u201cComparing Ghana\u2019s insolvency regime to international best practices, there is still more room for improvement as to working to promote growth and access to finance particularly for small businesses,\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOne aspect\u00a0of insolvency is to ensure that NPL\u2019s result in an efficient and transparent manner and also promote growth and access to finance,\u201d he observed.<\/p>\n

The two day conference brought together both private and public policymakers regarding insolvency reform in Africa whilst encouraging the sharing of reform experiences.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s edition on the theme, \u201cFreedom to Fail? Insolvency for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises\u201d, is the seventh edition since its inception in 2010.<\/p>\n

It was organized under the auspices of Insol International and the World Bank Group in association with the Ghana Association of Restructuring and Insolvency Advisors (GARIA).<\/p>\n
