CFA Society Ghana has moved to solidify its strategic partnership with the country’s financial regulators following a courtesy call on the Governor of the Bank of Ghana (BoG), Dr Johnson Pandit Asiama.
The high-level engagement, led by the leadership of CFA Society Ghana, focused on aligning the Society’s global expertise with the Central Bank’s regulatory priorities, particularly in promoting market transparency, ethical conduct, and world-class professional standards across Ghana’s financial services industry.
During the meeting, the Society commended the Bank of Ghana for its sustained efforts in stabilizing the macroeconomic environment amid recent challenges, and pledged ongoing technical support, data-driven insights, and international best practices to inform policy and drive reforms.
A major highlight was the formal recognition of the CFA Level I examination as part of the minimum qualification requirements for treasury roles in Ghanaian banks – a policy shift that both institutions hailed as a milestone in elevating competence and integrity in the sector.

CFA Society Ghana is further committed to supporting initiatives that strengthen investor protection, capital market development, and capacity building.
In response, Governor Dr Asiama underscored the critical role of technical excellence in modern central banking. He announced ambitious plans to significantly increase the number of CFA Charterholders within the Bank of Ghana over the next two years. The Central Bank will roll out targeted support programs to help staff pursue the globally respected CFA designation.
Speaking after the meeting, the leadership of CFA Society Ghana described the discussions as “highly productive” and expressed optimism about the growing synergy between the two institutions.
“This partnership reflects a shared vision for a more resilient, ethical, and globally competitive financial sector in Ghana,” a Society spokesperson said.
Both parties agreed to deepen collaboration in the coming months, with concrete initiatives expected in areas of ethics training, market surveillance, and professional development.
