About Us

Learn about our journey to empower Ghanaians through financial education

Our History

RUPEES was founded in 2013 by former bank executive Kwame Boateng who recognized a critical gap in Ghana's financial ecosystem. After witnessing countless hardworking Ghanaians struggle to navigate the complex world of personal finance, Kwame assembled a team of finance professionals committed to democratizing investment knowledge.

What began as a series of weekend workshops in community centers across Accra quickly evolved into Ghana's premier financial education platform for beginners. By 2015, we had established our headquarters on Kanda Highway and expanded our services to include personalized investment coaching, mobile banking tutorials, and financial literacy programs tailored specifically for Ghana's economic landscape.

In 2018, RUPEES partnered with several leading banks in Ghana to create accessible entry points for first-time investors. This collaboration allowed us to develop practical, hands-on programs that bridged the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world application. Today, we proudly serve thousands of Ghanaians each year, guiding them through their first steps in the investment world with confidence and clarity.

Our Vision

To create a financially empowered Ghana where every citizen, regardless of background or education level, has the knowledge and confidence to make sound investment decisions that secure their future prosperity.

Our Mission

To demystify the investment process through accessible education, personalized guidance, and practical tools that transform financial beginners into confident investors able to navigate Ghana's unique economic landscape.

Our Core Values

At RUPEES, our approach to financial education is guided by these fundamental principles that shape everything we do.

Accessibility

We believe financial education should be available to all Ghanaians, regardless of their background, education level, or current financial status. We explain complex concepts in clear, everyday language.

Contextual Relevance

We provide education that acknowledges Ghana's unique economic environment. Our advice is tailored to local realities, opportunities, and challenges rather than generic global principles.

Practical Application

We prioritize actionable knowledge over theoretical concepts. Our education always includes concrete steps that clients can immediately implement in their financial lives.

Small Business Owner

"RUPEES transformed my approach to business finances. I was keeping all my profits under my mattress before their education program showed me how to use mobile banking and low-risk investments to grow my capital safely. In just two years, I've built enough savings to expand my shop and hire two employees."

Secondary School Teacher

"As a teacher with limited income, I never thought investing was for me. RUPEES showed me how even small monthly contributions could grow significantly over time. Their patient guidance helped me set up automatic transfers to a money market fund, and now I'm building both an emergency fund and a retirement account."
