The Ghana Investment Promotion Centre (GIPC) has introduced a 24- hour premium service to enhance efficiency in service delivery, processing investor applications, expedite investment registration and approvals.
The Chief Executive Officer of GIPC, Mr Simon Madjie, said the premium service aligns with the government's 24-hour economy initiative, which seeks to create a dynamic business environment, attract investment and drive sustained economic growth. "Our service aligns with global best practices and provides investors with priority processing for their applications, ensuring timely support for urgent business activities," Mr Madjie said.
He mentioned that the 24-hour clock begun once the dedicated team at the Investor Services Department confirmed that all necessary documentation were complete, an invoice had been generated, and payment had been received.
He said the service "In an increasingly competitive global market, where nations are vying for investment, enhancing the ease of doing business is not merely desirable; it is absolutely crucial for attracting foreign direct investment. "We are therefore confident that this 24-hour premium service will send a convincing signal to the investor community that the GIPC, and indeed Ghana as a whole, is dedicated to investor-friendly policies that prioritise efficiency, transparency, and responsiveness," he added.
