Public Notice on New Securities Industry Guidelines 2022
The Securities and Exchange Commission of Ghana has issued five new regulatory guidelines under the Securities Industry Act, 2016, to strengthen market supervision and close existing regulatory gaps. These guidelines establish mandatory frameworks for the registration of public securities, structure over-the-counter trading for unlisted securities, and define the fiduciary roles of note trustees and issuing houses. Additionally, the regulations introduce a formal recognition process for self-regulatory organizations to complement regulatory oversight and enhance overall market integrity and investor protection.
