The Ghanaian authorities have announced the launch of a green bond exchange. This initiative will enable businesses and governments to share the risks in financing an economy that is more respectful of the requirements of sustainable development.

A green bond exchange in Ghana! This stock exchange dedicated to green bonds was announced this Tuesday, February 22, in Ghana, according to information reported by Bloomberg which quotes people close to this project. The initiative presents itself as the most successful project of a program carried out in Africa by the International Finance Corporation (IFC), the branch of the World Bank in charge of the private sector in developing countries. In Nigeria and South Africa, where the institution has also worked to create a financial market for green bonds, the process has led to the establishment of a dedicated compartment within existing stock exchanges.
