EPA more than triples accumulated fund to GH¢375m in a single year under Prof. Browne Klutse – SIGA

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has significantly boosted its financial standing, increasing its accumulated fund by more than GH¢264 million in a single year, from GH¢110.59 million in 2024 to GH¢375.19 million in 2025, according to the latest State Ownership Report by the State Interests and Governance Authority (SIGA).

This surge in the EPA's financial resources, largely driven by a 24% rise in income and the retention of operating surpluses, underscores the agency's growing financial resilience as it transitions into the Environmental Protection Authority under the Environmental Protection Act, 2025 (Act 1124). The report highlights that the EPA's internally generated funds (IGF) accounted for nearly all of its revenue, with IGF contributing 99.23% of total income in 2025, demonstrating the EPA's strong capacity to mobilise internal revenue and its limited reliance on external funding sources.
