The Securities and Exchange Commission of Ghana has established fixed annual market operator levies for 2025, ranging from GH¢3,000 to GH¢50,000 depending on the institution type. The guidelines mandate transaction fees on shares (0.7%), bonds (0.01%), and repurchase trades, detailing precise percentage allocations to exchanges, the central depository, the Commission, and market development funds. Market operators must remit these charges by the end of the first quarter or in installments by June 30, with monthly transaction fees due within ten working days and all payments directed to a designated SEC bank account under the Securities Industry Act.
