On Tuesday, 23rd April, 2024, President Akufo-Addo delivered an address at the 2024 Annual Policy and Governance Forum and launched two policy documents on the Code of Corporate Governance for Specified Entities and Public Service Organisations in Ghana and on the State Ownership Policy for Specified Entities.
The Annual Policy and Governance Forum, held by the State Interests and Governance Authority (SIGA) underscores the importance of ensuring that state-owned enterprises, operate efficiently, transparently, and accountably to deliver optimal benefits to our citizens and the economy as a whole.
Ghana has made significant strides in strengthening corporate governance frameworks across various sectors through the implementation of reforms, aimed at enhancing transparency, streamlining operations, and mitigating risks within state-owned enterprises.
The policy documents are not merely a regulatory requirement, but also a fundamental pre-requisite for the sustainable development of the nation.
By maximizing the benefit from state ownership, through sound governance practices, we can unlock the full potential of our resources, promote inclusive growth, and create a better future for all Ghanaians.
