The Ghana gold coin, part of the gold purchase program, will be available in two weeks.
At a recent Monetary Policy Committee meeting, Bank of Ghana Governor Dr. Ernest Addison announced that investors can buy these coins in three different weights at all commercial banks nationwide.
He emphasized that introducing gold coins aims to alleviate pressure on the local currency, providing an alternative for those who typically invest in dollars.
“Instead of buying dollars or treasury bills, you can now invest in gold through our domestic program,” he stated. The coins are made from dory gold sourced and refined in Ghana, achieving 99% purity.
