BoG Governor Dr. Ernest Addison and deputies lead press tour of new headquarters

Governor of the Bank of Ghana (BoG), Dr. Ernest Addison, along with his deputies, Dr. Maxwell Opoku-Afari and Mrs. Elsie Addo Awadzi, hosted members of the press for an exclusive tour of the BoG’s newly constructed headquarters, known as ‘The Bank Square’ on Monday, January 27, 2025.

The tour followed the year’s first Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) press briefing, marking a significant milestone as it was held in the new building for the first time.

The new headquarters, which is currently in use with the bank’s staff already working there, symbolizes the Bank of Ghana’s commitment to modernising its operations.

The edifice boasts state-of-the-art facilities designed to enhance the institution’s role in shaping the country’s financial landscape.

Dr. Addison and his deputies took the opportunity to showcase the building’s amenities, discussing how its design and infrastructure will foster greater efficiency in the Bank’s functions.

Governor Dr. Addison also expressed optimism that the new headquarters would play a pivotal role in the Bank’s mission to ensure financial stability and promote economic growth.

The tour provided journalists with valuable insights into the work of the central bank and its future directions, including key initiatives aimed at sustaining the country’s economic stability.

Meanwhile, the MPC briefing, which is a key event in the Bank of Ghana’s calendar, serves as a platform for sharing critical updates on the country’s economic performance and monetary policy stance.

At its first meeting of the year, the Central Bank decided to keep the monetary policy rate unchanged at 27 percent.
