According to the GIPC’s quarterly report from July to September this year, more than 90 percent of the 97 projects will be located in Accra.
Joy Business’ George Wiafe went through the entire report and revealed that in all, 216 million dollars was invested in the country between July and September this year from the 97 projects registered with the center.
Seventy of the projects were wholly foreign-owned whiles the remainder were joint ventures between Ghanaians and foreign partners.
The services sector will absorb about 34 of the projects whiles general trading would take up the rest. China topped the list of countries with the highest number of projects registered.
Nigeria on the other hand brought in the most in terms of value. They registered a total of 191 million dollars’ worth of investment.
