The Minister for Finance, Hon. Dr. Cassiel Ato Baah Forson, has inaugurated a 13-member Board of Directors for the Ghana Gold Board (GoldBoD), describing the body as a strategic vehicle for achieving effective currency management and bolstering the country’s economic resilience.

Swearing in the members at a brief ceremony, Dr. Forson congratulated the newly constituted board on behalf of President John Dramani Mahama and expressed confidence in their ability to deliver on the Board’s mandate.

He highlighted the impressive turnaround in Ghana’s currency performance, noting:

“As of May 13, 2025, the Ghana cedi has solidified its position as the standout performer among global currencies, achieving a remarkable 16.7% appreciation against the US dollar year-to-date. This marks a significant reversal from the 13.4% depreciation observed in the same period of 2024, with the cedi earning recognition as the top-performing currency in April 2025.”

Dr. Forson attributed the sustained rally of the cedi to a combination of robust monetary and fiscal policy coordination, improved forex inflows from gold, cocoa and remittances, and disciplined public finance management.

He further emphasized that the record-high foreign exchange reserves at the Bank of Ghana, which exceeded IMF programme targets ahead of schedule, underscored the sustainability of the cedi’s recent performance.

In his remarks, the Chairperson of the newly inaugurated board, Mr. Kojo Fynn, assured that the board would serve with humility, uphold the highest standards of good governance, and engage all stakeholders in the execution of its duties.

He acknowledged the weighty responsibilities enshrined in the Gold Board’s enabling Act and pledged the board’s full commitment to delivering on its mandate.

  1. Mr. Kojo Fynn – Chairperson
  2. Mr. Samuel Gyamfi – Ag. CEO of the Gold Board / Member
