CEO of Ghana Investment Promotion Centre, Simon Madjie
The Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre (GIPC), Simon Madjie, has stated that the government will create new investment opportunities for both local and foreign investors.
He explained that this initiative is anchored on the understanding that the private sector is the engine of growth for every economy. Therefore, an enabling environment must be created to allow businesses to thrive.
In a release sighted by GhanaWeb Business, Madjie emphasized that Ghana remains an attractive investment destination in Africa.
“Ghana is indeed open for business, and President Mahama has pledged to create a new dawn of investment opportunities for both local and international investors. The government recognizes the private sector as the driving force behind Ghana’s economic recovery and long-term growth,” he stated.
“It is thus committed to creating an enabling environment where businesses can thrive. Furthermore, John Dramani Mahama has expressed strong political will to implement bold and necessary reforms proposed by stakeholders, including the private sector, aimed at resetting Ghana’s economy and driving long-term stability,” Simon Madjie added.
While encouraging investors, he noted that Ghana’s investment regulations offer adequate protection for investors and their investments.
These regulations also provide investors with access to the wider African market through the Africa Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA).
He assured that his organization is ready to assist local and foreign investors in leveraging all available opportunities in the country, especially those presented by the 24-hour economy.
