President John Dramani Mahama is scheduled to have an engagement with the Chief Executive Officers of State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs).

The meeting, according to the State Interests and Governance Authority (SIGA) will take place at the Kempinski Hotel on March 13, 2025.

“The State Interests and Governance Authority (SIGA) is pleased to announce a groundbreaking engagement between President John Mahama and CEOs of State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) and other state entities in Ghana,” SIGA said in a statement.

It announced that the engagement will bring together senior government officials, ministers of state, and officials from the World Bank in Ghana.

SOEs Study Launch
At the meeting, SIGA said, a comprehensive deep-dive study of 16 SOEs that control a significant portfolio of state assets will be launched.

This study undertaken by the Authority aims to provide insights into the current state of SOEs, identify areas for improvement, and inform strategies for reform and transformation.

“The findings of the study will be critical in shaping the government’s policy direction and ensuring that SOEs operate in a manner that is transparent, accountable, and aligned with national development objectives,” it added.

The Director-General of SIGA, Prof. Michael Kpessa-Whyte anticipates that the the meeting will be a significant step towards promoting good corporate governance, transparency, and accountability in the management of state-owned enterprises.

“We are confident that the outcomes of this engagement will have a positive impact on Ghana’s economic development.”
