Ghana Business & Finance - February 2016

この問題で

This edition looks at Ghana as it goes to the polls in November, with a fall in export commodities prices, declining Foreign Direct Investment, decreasing agriculture output and a struggling manufacturing sector. There seem to be tougher times ahead. GB&F focuses on The Royal Bank which has achieved excellent performance in three years. Our analysis of the Ghana Stock Exchange reveals that it is not seeing leapfrogging activities. We examine how a new tax and other anti-developmental policies are affecting the operations of the bourse negatively.

We feature Ghana`s premier fabrics manufacturer, GTP, which is 50 years old, on our cover. GTP continues to make it fashionable for Ghanaians to adorn its products from the cradle to the grave, despite the challenges of piracy and the counterfeiting of its colourful wax prints. The article on Accra, Ghana’s capital, is very comprehensive as the largely filthy city serves as the Number One entry point into Ghana for many tourists.

We also publish a feature on the survey that Allianz Risk Barometer did on the changing risk landscape globally for businesses with regard to business interruption, cyber attacks, geo-political instability and technology failures. Read the article on how relational cultural behavior can be utilised to develop a
productive brand for corporate entities in Ghana.

We encourage our readers to buy copies of GB&F magazine and enjoy themselves with more interesting articles. Please, have a good read.
