The Secondary bond market turnover fell by 68.1% week-on-week to GH¢1.11 billion from GH¢3.47 billion the previous week.

The 2027–2030 bonds dominated activity, accounting for 57% of trades at a weighted average YTM of 16.30%.
The 2031–2038 papers accounted for 44% of trades at a weighted YTM of 16.39%.
Databank Research said, “We expect appetite for short-term bonds to persist in the coming weeks, underpinned by the recent policy rate cut, easing inflation, and fiscal discipline.”
However, it added that trading patterns continue to signal caution, characterised by volume swings, limited repo activity, and a reliance on sell-and-buy-back arrangements.
