Network investments

According to Databank Research, MTN Ghana’s increased capital expenditure is expected to improve network quality and support continued growth in the number of higher-value mobile internet users for the company. The main investments are directed toward network modernization, the deployment of additional radio-frequency spectrum, and capacity expansion.

Analysts also expect that the merger of MobileMoney Limited and MobileMoney Fintech Limited will accelerate the development of new products and deepen ecosystem integration. In their view, this could strengthen fee income and improve operational efficiency.
