The Minerals Income Investment Fund (‘MIIF’ or ‘the Fund’) wishes to categorically state and clarify the following regarding the above-referenced publication.

MIIF wishes to indicate that it did not authorise, commission, or publish the document titled "MIIF Ghana's Gold Trade Programme: A Case Study in Mining Investment Growth." This publication does not represent the official position, views, or communications of MIIF.

The Fund notes with concern that this and similar publications are being circulated by faceless, anonymous characters without proper attribution or institutional backing.

Against this background, MIIF strongly advises the public to disregard any such publications or articles relating to our organisation that lack clear authorship and official endorsement.

We wish to reiterate that any legitimate MIIF publication will: Bear official MIIF letterhead and branding; Include clear authorship and authorisation details; Be distributed through official MIIF channels and credible media institutions; and Carry proper institutional endorsement.

Consequently, the Fund wishes to advise all stakeholders, media houses, and the public to: Verify the authenticity of any document purporting to be from MIIF; Ignore anonymous publications claiming to represent MIIF's position; and Direct all inquiries to official MIIF communication channels.

MIIF again assures the nation that it remains committed to transparent communication and will continue to provide accurate information through its official channels.

We advise that, for authentic information and clarifications, interested stakeholders can contact MIIF through its official communication channel: corporateaffairs@miif.gov.gh
