a. The ASM G4R programme, although a good policy, was implemented in a fragmented and uncoordinated manner in 2022, 2023 and 2024.
Lack of a clear legal regime and the absence of centralised market regulation for the ASM gold trade sector, fueled leakages and hampered the attainment of programme goals.
b. Thus, the GoldBod was established by the visionary NDC/Mahama government in 2025 to reform the ASM gold trade sector through centralised trading and market regulation to optimise national
benefits.
This has been a game-changer in the ASM gold trade sector.
