The Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre (GIPC), Mr. Simon Madjie (Esq.), has given investors firm assurances that Ghana remains a secure and predictable destination for business.
Addressing participants at the Africa Singapore Business Forum, Mr. Madjie highlighted Ghana’s robust legal and institutional framework, pointing to mechanisms such as the Arbitration Act, the Tax Appeals Board, and the Commercial Court, all of which ensure commercial disputes are resolved fairly and efficiently.
He further noted that government policy is now focused on driving long-term economic growth, with President John Mahama’s flagship 24-hour economy initiative at the forefront.
This policy encourages companies, especially those in priority sectors, to operate around the clock through multiple shifts, aiming to increase productivity, create jobs, and enhance Ghana’s competitiveness across the region.
Mr. Madjie also highlighted the administration’s Big Push Agenda, a comprehensive infrastructure initiative aimed at enhancing transportation, energy, and digital connectivity. The programme is designed to attract both public and private investment, supporting the country’s broader industrialization goals.
According to Mr. Madjie, these initiatives will unlock new investment opportunities in fields such as manufacturing, agribusiness, technology, and clean energy.
He concluded by reaffirming that Ghana’s political stability, improving macroeconomic environment, and dynamic youth workforce make the country an increasingly attractive destination for investors looking to expand in Africa.
