She assured them of her support and said the push for good corporate governance was serving, “as a compass for stakeholders”.

The Deputy Attorney General, who is also the Deputy Minister of Justice, made the remarks when the Institute, represented by Mr Rockson Dogbegah,  President of IoD-Gh, and  Dr. Rejoice Foli, Project Manager for the National Corporate Governance Code (NCGC), called on her to discuss the draft national code and related matters.

The meeting also requested for a strategic collaboration with the Attorney Generals Department.

Madam Dapaah emphasised that Ghana needed a sound corporate governance culture to avert a repeat of the banking crisis.

“We hope to invite IoD-Gh for some of our retreats to facilitate capacity building on the issue of conduct within the broader space.”
