Hosi, Entrepreneur, Finance &#038; Economic Policy Analyst, says the establishment of the Gold Board (GOLDBOD) has fundamentally transformed how Ghana captures value from its gold resources, reversing decades of leakages and missed opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>He explains that before GOLDBOD, Ghana\u2019s gold economy was characterised by fragmented regulation, weak oversight, and widespread smuggling, particularly within the artisanal and small-scale mining sector.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were exporting gold, but we were not exporting value,\u201d Hosi says.<\/p>\n<p>According to Hosi, GOLDBOD\u2019s centralised framework has brought transparency, traceability, and accountability to gold trading.<\/p>\n<p>By offering competitive pricing and structured buying channels, the institution successfully displaced illicit buyers and redirected flows into official systems.<\/p>\n<p>He notes that the jump in official ASM gold exports from 63.6 metric tonnes in 2024 to about 101 metric tonnes in 2025 is a direct result of GOLDBOD\u2019s operations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is evidence that policy, when well-designed, can change behaviour quickly,\u201d he states.<\/p>\n<p>Hosi concludes that GOLDBOD has laid the foundation for a more resilient gold value chain.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is not just about forex; it is about national ownership of our mineral wealth,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n        <div
