GHANA is taking new steps to grow its economy and attract more investment following a high-level meeting in London on 14 April 2026.
As part of an official visit, the Deputy Director-General in charge of Finance at the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Mr. Mensah Thompson, led a team of financial experts to pay a courtesy call on Ghana’s High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, H.E. Mrs. Sabah Zita Benson.
The meeting focused on Ghana’s improving economic outlook and the opportunities this creates for both local and international investors. The team discussed ways to build stronger domestic capital, improve how investment portfolios are managed, and increase trade between Ghana and other countries.
Mr. Thompson also stressed the importance of equipping Ghana’s diplomatic missions abroad with up-to-date information about the country’s capital market. He explained that this would help promote Ghana more effectively to global investors and strengthen economic diplomacy.
In response, the High Commissioner praised the SEC team for their efforts in strengthening Ghana’s financial sector. She assured them of the High Commission’s full support in promoting Ghana’s economic interests in the UK.
She also highlighted plans to engage more Ghanaian finance professionals living abroad and to showcase Ghana’s growing fintech sector on international platforms. One key opportunity will be the upcoming Ghana-UK Investment Summit, scheduled for 1st to 2nd June 2026 in London.
The meeting marks another step in Ghana’s efforts to position itself as a strong and attractive destination for investment on the global stage.
