BoG Governor appoints Second Deputy Governor Matilda Asante-Asiedu as rep on GoldBod board
Bank of Ghana Governor Dr Johnson Pandit Asiama has appointed the central bank’s Second Deputy Governor, Matilda Asante-Asiedu, to represent the central bank on the Board of the Ghana Gold Board (GoldBod).
The appointment comes amid renewed scrutiny over the Governor’s membership of the GoldBod Board and concerns about the relationship between the central bank and the state-owned gold trading institution.
