Listing SOEs on Stock Exchange will curb political interference, open up investment - President Mahama

President John Dramani Mahama has said the intended listing of 10 state-owned enterprises (SOEs) on the Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE) would transform them into public companies, enforce accountability and reduce political interference in their management.

The President added that the Ghana Stock Exchange was the best-performing exchange in Africa last year and had bounced back strongly, with three Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) completed in record time.

Investment President Mahama said the country remained attractive to investors because of its stable power supply and extensive coverage.
