Enterprise Group PLC recorded a 23 per cent growth in total assets to more than GH¢4 billion in 2025, driven largely by improved investment performance, Mr. Daniel Larbi-Tieku, Group Chief Executive Officer, has said.
Speaking to journalists after the company’s Annual General Meeting (AGM) in Accra, Mr. Larbi-Tieku said the strong asset growth reflected the Group’s prudent investment of policyholders’ funds to ensure claims obligations could be met.
“Our total assets increased by 23 per cent to a little over GH¢4 billion in 2025, and this was driven largely by a significant improvement in our investments,” he said.
He explained that as an insurance company, Enterprise Group collected premiums from policyholders with the assurance that valid claims would be honoured when they arose.
According to him, the premiums are invested to generate returns while ensuring adequate liquidity to settle future claims.
“As an insurance company, we collect premiums with the promise that in the event of any occurrence, we will honour and pay claims. These amounts are held in investments so that we are able to pay claims when required,” he said.
Mr. Larbi-Tieku noted that the growth in the company’s investment portfolio contributed significantly to the increase in total assets during the year under review.
He said the investments were held on behalf of policyholders and formed a critical component of the Group’s financial strength and long-term sustainability.
Commenting on a proposal raised by shareholders regarding a possible bonus share issue, Mr. Larbi-Tieku said management and the Board would carefully consider the proposal before any recommendation was presented.
He said although the matter deserved consideration, it required thorough assessment at both the management and Board levels before shareholders could be asked to make a final decision.
“This is worthy of consideration. We will discuss the merits of it at the management level and continue the discussion at the Board level. Ultimately, we will come back to shareholders to consider and approve it if any recommendation is made,” he said.
Mr. Larbi-Tieku observed that bonus share issues were common corporate actions undertaken by listed companies and indicated that Enterprise Group had the capacity to pursue such an initiative if deemed appropriate.
“It is something that has been done by other companies on the market, so it is something we can do,” he said.
He reaffirmed the Group’s commitment to creating long-term value for shareholders while maintaining strong financial performance and meeting its obligations to policyholders.
