Director of the Ghana Publishing Company, Nana Kwasi Boatey, says the state-owned firm has recorded significant financial improvement over the past 10 months, placing it in what he describes as a \u201cvery sound\u201d position.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on <em>Pulse on JoyNews<\/em>, Mr Boatey revealed that the company is now liquid enough to make investments of up to GH\u20b515 million or more, following a series of internal reforms aimed at boosting productivity and revenue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs I indicated to the President, currently the company can say that we\u2019re liquid enough to have an investment of something in the region of 15 million or even more,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Although he clarified that the amount is not sitting idle in a single bank account, Mr Boatey explained that the company\u2019s overall financial strength has improved substantially.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese are not figures you usually throw about, because then all your other transactions are viewed in that light,\u201d he noted, adding that such disclosures are usually reserved for high-level briefings. \u201cBut the point is that the company is in very sound financial health right now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to him, the turnaround is the result of deliberate and sometimes difficult decisions taken by management.<\/p>\n<p>One of the major changes, he said, was the introduction of a 24-hour shift system to address productivity challenges linked to overstaffing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we realised that overstaffing was one of the problems the company had, and one of the reasons we were in bad financial health, we started a 24-hour service,\u201d he explained. \u201cThat meant productivity improved, and we were able to increase revenue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Ghana Publishing Company, which is responsible for printing government gazettes, textbooks, and other official publications, has in recent years faced financial and operational challenges.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Boatey said the current performance demonstrates what can be achieved when public institutions are restructured with a focus on efficiency and accountability.<\/p>\n<p>He expressed optimism that the company\u2019s new financial standing will enable it to expand operations, invest in modern equipment, and better serve the public.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n        <div class=\"booster-block booster-reactions-block\">\n
