“An active capital market is the mirror of a growing economy.” – Dr. Ernest Addison, Governor, Bank of Ghana
A thriving capital market reflects the underlying dynamics of an economy. As economic activity expands, an active capital market mobilises savings, allocates resources efficiently and prices risk accurately, thereby facilitating growth. In turn, a growing economy fosters a vibrant capital market, creating a virtuous cycle of development.
By examining the capital market, policymakers and investors can gain valuable insights into the economy’s trajectory, identifying opportunities and challenges that inform their decisions.
The continent’s remarkable growth trajectory presents a significant opportunity for those who participate in capital markets a chance to tap into the potential for substantial returns.
