dc.description	Ghana intends to achieve its goals of accelerated economic growth, improved quality of life for all Ghanaians, and reduced poverty through macroeconomic stability, higher private investment, broad-based social and rural development, as well as direct poverty-alleviation efforts. These plans are fully supported by the international donor community and have been forcefully reiterated in the 1995 government report, Ghana: Vision 2020.Other reforms adopted under the government's structural adjustment program include the elimination of exchange rate controls and the lifting of virtually all restrictions on imports. The establishment of an interbank foreign exchange market has greatly expanded access to foreign exchange.	en_US
dc.description.abstract	Ghana intends to achieve its goals of accelerated economic growth, improved quality of life for all Ghanaians, and reduced poverty through macroeconomic stability, higher private investment, broad-based social and rural development, as well as direct poverty-alleviation efforts. In 1976, the Ghanaian government, through the Bank of Ghana, established Rural Banks to channel credit to productive rural ventures and promote rural development. Rural development is a strategy intended to improve the economic and social life of the rural poor. However; rural banks are characterized with challenges which affect the Ghanaian economy. The research design was a descriptive cross sectional study which used both quantitative and qualitative tools to determine the challenges of Rural Banks in Ghana. Both primary and secondary research data were used in the study. Self-administered questionnaires were used in collecting data from respondents.	en_US
