History
UT began as a Finance House in 1997 under the name Unique Trust Financial Services Limited, with a capital of about $20,000 and operating from a single room office in the heart of Accra, the capital city of Ghana. It was co-founded by Mr Prince Kofi Amoabeng, an Investment Consultant and Joseph Nsonamoah, an Entrepreneur.
The accelerated growth and success of UT Financial Services, then created the need for restructuring of the business into a Group with diverse but synergistic entities that enabled it to offer value added services to clients.
Built on a passion to serve the informal sector, UT has grown into a company that is able to provide innovative solutions to its clients; achieved through its solid business structure, flexibility and timely delivery of service.
