CFA Society Ghana has taken a significant step toward deepening collaboration with Ghana’s financial regulators following a high-level courtesy call on the Governor of the Bank of Ghana (BoG), Dr Johnson Pandit Asiama. The engagement reaffirmed the Society’s commitment to supporting the Central Bank’s regulatory agenda, particularly initiatives designed to enhance market transparency, strengthen ethical conduct, and elevate professional standards across Ghana’s financial ecosystem.
A central theme of the discussion was the Society’s commendation of the Bank of Ghana’s continued efforts in stabilising the macroeconomic environment. The Society reaffirmed its long-term commitment to contributing technical expertise, data-driven insights, and global perspectives to advance policy formulation and financial sector reforms.
The meeting further provided an opportunity to acknowledge the Bank of Ghana’s progressive step in recognising successful completion of the CFA Level I examination as part of the minimum requirements for professionals seeking roles within treasury departments of banks in Ghana. This development reflects a shared commitment to strengthening competence, integrity, and ethical decision-making within the industry.
Discussions also explored additional pathways for collaboration, particularly in advancing ethical practices, financial market development, and capacity building. CFA Society Ghana reiterated its readiness to support regulatory programs that enhance transparency, investor protection, and trust within the capital markets.
The Governor emphasised the strategic importance of deepening technical capacity within the Central Bank. He expressed strong commitment to increasing the number of CFA Charterholders within the Bank of Ghana over the next two years, supported by targeted initiatives to assist staff pursuing the Charter. This aligns with the Bank’s vision of embedding global best practices in regulation, risk management, and market oversight.
CFA Society Ghana looks forward to further strengthening its partnership with the Central Bank as both institutions work collectively to build a resilient, transparent, and globally competitive financial sector for Ghana.
