GIPA CEO calls for stronger coordination to provide a clearer picture of investment activity

GIPA CEO Simon Madjie has called for stronger coordination among institutions to provide a clearer picture of investment activity in Ghana. According to the 2025 Annual Investment Report, Ghana recorded US$2.62 billion in Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in 2025, marking a significant increase from US$651.7 million in 2024. The report, compiled by GIPA in collaboration with various ministries and agencies, revealed that FDI activity is not just limited to cash inflows but also includes investments in machinery, equipment, raw materials, and other components.

The report attributes the increase in FDI to Ghana's improved macroeconomic stability, deepened global investment engagement through targeted missions and strategic partnerships, and new investments in the petroleum and free zones sectors.
