Ahead of the U.S.-Ghana Executive Business Roundtable, Ghana’s President John Dramani Mahama made a symbolic appearance at the NASDAQ Stock Exchange in New York.
President Mahama rang the opening bell at the NASDAQ Stock Exchange, marking a significant moment in Ghana’s bid to attract global investment.
The roundtable event, organised by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce in collaboration with the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre (GIPC), aims to strengthen trade ties, showcase Ghana’s investment opportunities, and deepen bilateral economic cooperation.
According to the GIPC, President Mahama’s presence at NASDAQ underscored Ghana’s commitment to positioning itself as a competitive investment destination and reaffirmed that the country is truly “Open for Business.”
The roundtable highlighted recent reforms by the Mahama administration designed to make Ghana a more attractive hub for investors. Key among these were the decision to scrap minimum capital requirements for foreign investors and the introduction of a residency-by-investment program.
Mahama is in New York for the 80th United Nations General Assembly, where he is expected to push for global financial reforms and stronger economic integration across Africa.
His government has positioned these reforms as a foundation for long-term growth, resilience, and investor confidence.
