BoG encourages banks to list on GSE to unlock long-term capital

The Bank of Ghana (BoG) is encouraging more commercial banks to list on the Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE) as part of efforts to deepen the capital market and increase access to long-term financing for businesses.

She assured me that a lot of progress is being made because if we get the majority of our banks listed on the Ghana Stock Exchange, that is additional long-term capital being managed,” he said.

Johnson Asiama, said a stronger presence of banks on the stock exchange would provide them with additional sources of long-term capital, which could in turn support longer-term lending to businesses.
