The Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE) has highlighted its capital market platforms as potential sources of financing for businesses seeking to expand across borders.
The Exchange made the case during the Canada Ghana Chamber of Commerce’s “CEOs Connect Summit”, where its Manager for Listings and New Products, Oscar Ayisi, represented Managing Director Abena Amoah on a panel discussing strategies for financing cross-border business expansion.
Mr Ayisi outlined the GSE’s six markets and explained how they provide different avenues for businesses to raise capital depending on their stage of growth and financing needs.
The markets are the Main Market, Ghana Alternative Market (GAX), Ghana Fixed Income Market (GFIM), Over-the-Counter Market (OTC), Commercial Paper Market, and Green/Sustainable Bond Market.
He said the range of platforms provides businesses with different options for accessing capital as they grow and pursue expansion opportunities.
The discussion also highlighted the performance of the Ghana Stock Exchange in 2026.
The GSE’s Composite Index recorded a 72.97 per cent year-to-date return as of August 19, 2026.
The Exchange was also recognised by Bloomberg in May as the second-best performing stock exchange globally after South Korea.
The engagement brought together business leaders to discuss financing strategies and opportunities for companies pursuing growth beyond their domestic markets.
