Note on the Source Text

The original response incorrectly cited Ghana Commercial Bank (GCB) details (SWIFT: GCBBGHAC) and a pseudo-IBAN format. Ghana has not adopted IBAN; the format shown was illustrative, not operational.

For Standard Chartered Ghana: use SCBLGHAC + 13-digit account. Confirm with your branch for specific incoming wire instructions.
