Violators Face Possible Prison Time
The Ghanaian central bank has reminded the public that the practice of receiving or making payments for goods and services in foreign currency without its express authorization is still prohibited. The bank also similarly warned businesses against “engaging in foreign exchange business without a license issued by the Bank of Ghana.”
In a 声明, ガーナ銀行 (ボグ) said those caught on the wrong side of regulations face hefty fines. Alternatively, those in violation of the respective regulations face “a term of imprisonment of not more than eighteen (18) months or both.”
Citizens Urged to Report Violations
According to the BOG, only the local currency, the cedi, is the sole legal tender in Ghana. The central bank also indicated it will descend on companies breaking the law and all offenders will be punished in accordance with the law. In the statement, the BOG said:
ガーナ銀行, in collaboration with National Security and law enforcement agencies, will continue to clamp down on illegal foreign exchange operations. All offenders shall be dealt with in accordance with the law.
その間, in the statement, the BOG said Ghanaian citizens should report any violations of the Foreign Exchange Act to its complaints offices.
The warning by the BOG comes just over a month after the cedi, which depreciated by 8.86% between January 1 and February 25, was named the worst-performing among Africa’s top currencies. The cedi’s fall comes more than a year after it was rated the best-performing currency.
