Passage of the Virtual Asset Service Providers Bill
The Securities and Exchange Commission of Ghana announces Parliament's passage of the Virtual Asset Service Providers Bill, which establishes a comprehensive legal framework for the virtual asset sector. The legislation mandates that all individuals and entities conducting virtual asset activities must obtain a license or official registration from either the SEC or the Bank of Ghana. The SEC will specifically oversee and regulate key services including exchanges, trading platforms, issuance, tokenization, ETFs, management, advisory, brokerage, and mining activities while joint guidelines with the Bank of Ghana will operationalize the Act.
