The Securities and Exchange Commission, Ghana, issued the 2025 Guidelines to regulate licensed entities dealing in Government of Ghana securities across primary and secondary markets. Authorized dealers must maintain prescribed minimum capital, employ at least four representatives, publish daily competitive bid and offer quotations, implement strict KYC and anti-money laundering protocols, and retain transaction records for seven years. The Commission may investigate operations, revoke or suspend licences for non-compliance, and levy administrative penalties ranging from fifty to twenty thousand penalty units.
