GoldBod must appear before a parliamentary inquiry to answer for gold-trade losses — Appiagyei
The Minority in Parliament has stepped up its demand for accountability over the financial consequences of the Bank of Ghana’s (BoG) Domestic Gold Purchase Programme (DGPP), insisting that the Ghana Gold Board (GoldBod) cannot distance itself from questions surrounding billions of dollars in gold transactions undertaken on behalf of the central bank.
The Minority has argued that GoldBod occupied a central position in the domestic gold market, with responsibility for buying, weighing, grading, assaying, valuing and exporting gold.
The dispute centres on the financial cost of the DGPP, under which the BoG dramatically expanded its domestic gold purchases in 2025 as part of efforts to rebuild Ghana’s international reserves and support the foreign exchange market.
