Trading on the secondary bond market was upbeat last week.
This is partly on the back of positive remarks from the International Monetary Fund, following the first review of Ghana’s $3 billion Economic Credit Facility.
Investors exchanged a total volume of ¢582.64 million, representing a 45.26% increase week-on-week in Government of Ghana bonds.
The February 2027 and February 2028 papers jointly dominated trading activity, contributing 84% out of 107 trades recorded during the week and over 90% of the market turnover.
Bond yields at the front of the LCY curve declined 187 basis points to 12.47%.
Analysts expect trading activity to remain strong this week due to improving investor confidence.
