Ghana’s Ambassador to the United States, Victor Emmanuel Smith, has reiterated the call for the Ghanaian diaspora to partner with American investors to boost development and create jobs in Ghana.
He stated that Ghana has positioned itself to enhance private-sector participation, manage external debt prudently, and exit the IMF stabilisation programme with confidence and credibility.
The Ambassador was speaking at the latest Investment Roundtable in the US, the 7th in the series, held in Orrick’s New York office, New York City.
Ambassador Smith highlighted the transformative investment opportunities and touched on some of the hurdles which have been overcome to stabilise the economy under President John Dramani Mahama and reiterated that Ghana is open for business.
The Deputy CEO of GIPC, Abdul Razak, outlined investment opportunities and incentives under the GIPC Act to support priority sectors for industrial transformation in the Mahama administration.
This engagement forms part of the Embassy’s focus on expanding access, driving impactful investment for job creation and development in Ghana.
