The Chamber of Digital Assets and Blockchain Innovation (CDABI) has hosted a delegation from the Cambridge Centre for Alternative Finance (CCAF) in Accra.

As part of the Centre’s official visit to Ghana, they focused on digital assets, payments, and regulatory innovation.

The engagement brought together international researchers and industry leaders to exchange views on Ghana’s rapidly evolving digital asset landscape following the country’s recent regulatory milestones.

The discussions focused on implementation priorities, regulatory readiness, and the practical steps needed to translate policy clarity into safe, scalable market activity.

The meeting was led by Caleb Kwaku Afaglo, President of the Chamber, with participation from Kofi Genfi, Technical Director at the Chamber, and Johnson Olakunmi, Digital Finance Consultant at Omnibsic.

The discussions benefited from a blend of policy, technical, and market perspectives brought into a single, focused conversation.

A key highlight of the meeting was a shared interest in developing a joint initiative to establish a gold standard framework for Anti-Money Laundering (AML) officers in Ghana.

The proposed collaboration aims to strengthen compliance capacity across the digital asset ecosystem while creating clear, merit-based pathways for young entrepreneurs and graduates to access recognised training, certification, and practical exposure.

It is also important to have a level playing field in professional experience and credibility.

“As Ghana moves from passing laws to building real capacity, setting clear and credible standards for compliance professionals is essential to trust, inclusion, and long-term market integrity,” Mr Afaglo said.

The engagement also explored broader opportunities for collaboration in research, skills development, and responsible innovation, underscoring Ghana’s growing relevance in global conversations on digital asset regulation and financial integrity.
