Ghana : agreement to purchase 20% of gold production

On Wednesday, Ghana reached a deal with 9 mining companies to purchase 20% of their gold production, aimed at strengthening its gold reserves and stabilizing the national currency. This initiative, part of a larger agreement with the Bank of Ghana, helped increase the country’s gold reserves to 30.8 tons by February 2025. The GoldBod, a government agency, will oversee these acquisitions, paid in Ghanaian cedis.
