Ghana\u2019s fintech sector boasts of a diverse array of startups, accelerators and regulatory initiatives, solidifying our position as a frontrunner in fintech innovation across the continent.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI commend the Bank of Ghana for being proactive in establishing a regulatory framework conducive to fintech innovation, exemplified by initiatives such as the Payment Systems and Services Act, Act 987 and establishing a Fintech and Innovation Office. These efforts affirm our commitment to fostering innovation while safeguarding consumer interests and preserving financial stability.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want to take this opportunity also to acknowledge the many incubators across Ghana, including the Ghana Tech Lab and MEST Africa, that provide invaluable support to fintech entrepreneurs through mentorship, financial backing, and networking opportunities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He further stated that the rate of the depreciation of the Cedi has slowed this year compared to last year.<\/p>\n<p>Despite recent pressures on the local currency, he said, the cedi\u2019s depreciation year-to-date of 12% is far lower than its depreciation of 27% in the same period last year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor this reason, Ghana\u2019s economic rebound has been quite swift with economic growth ending the year 2023 at 2.9% against a target of 1.5%, inflation heading towards the year-end target of 15%, and interest rates declining. Despite recent pressures on our currency, the cedi\u2019s depreciation year-to-date of 12% is far lower than its depreciation of 27% in the same period last year,\u201d he said<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ghana.
