Trade activity in the secondary bond market rose 28.90% week-on-week to GH¢1.41 billion, up from GH¢1.09 billion.

Overall, the 2027–2030 papers dominated with a 72% share, clearing at an average Yield-To-Maturity (YTM) of 20%.
Longer-dated 2031–2038 maturities made up 28%, with YTM easing to 21.06%.
