The President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has assured that government does not intend to slash the returns made on investments as speculated.
President Akufo-Addo gave the assurance when he addressed the nation on Sunday following economic challenges currently confronting the country.
Government is currently seeking a $3 billion economic recovery support from the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
Government as part of processes for securing the IMF support is currently conducting a debt sustainability analysis and there are fears investments in government securities may be affected.
Earlier reports suggested that about GH¢3.7 billion of the GH¢3.9 billion Tier 2 pension contributions placed in government securities may be affected by the Debt Restructuring Programme.
While refuting such claims, President Akufo-Addo urged persons making such claims to desist from such actions.
