Fees and Charges Miscellaneous Provisions Regulations 2023
The Securities and Exchange Commission, under the Ministry of Finance, issues a detailed schedule fixing initial and renewal licensing fees for securities market entities. The regulations mandate specific Ghana Cedi charges for fund managers, trustees, broker-dealers, custodians, and market infrastructure operators. Furthermore, the framework establishes tiered percentage-based prospectus approval fees for equity and debt offerings, calculated progressively based on the total value of securities raised.
