Ghana’s Inna Mariam Patty to Be Called to the Bar of England & Wales with Distinction

 Inna Mariam Patty, a renowned Ghanaian entrepreneur, philanthropist, and social advocate, will be officially called to the Bar of England and Wales at a ceremony held by the Honourable Society of Lincoln’s Inn. Patty will graduate with Distinction from the University of Law, where she pursued the Bar Practice, having also received the prestigious Dean’s Award for Excellence Scholarship.

Her call to the Bar marks not just a personal milestone, but also a symbolic moment of cross-continental inspiration—an embodiment of academic excellence, social responsibility, and leadership spanning business, law, and humanitarian service.

I see this as a continuation of my purpose—to use law as a tool for empowerment, justice, and social impact, especially for women and vulnerable communities,” said Patty.


Before embarking on her legal journey, Patty established herself as a transformative leader. As Chief Executive Officer of Exclusive Events Ghana Ltd, she spearheaded initiatives that elevated Ghana’s event industry and used pageantry as a platform for community change. Under her leadership, the Miss Ghana Foundation has funded scholarships for over 40 students, built water projects in northern Ghana, partnered with UNAIDS on national campaigns, and supported the FOCOS Orthopaedic Hospital in providing life-saving surgeries for children with scoliosis.

Patty currently serves as a Board Member of FOCOS Orthopaedic Hospital and Chairwoman of the Miss Ghana Foundation, roles through which she continues to advocate for education, healthcare, and empowerment initiatives.

Her exemplary achievements have earned her multiple distinctions, including:

  • Overall African Woman Achiever (CSR Consultant) at the 2023 African Women Awards (Ethiopia).
  • Recognition among Top 50 Young CEOs in Ghana (2023) by Avance Media.
  • International Arch of Europe Award (Frankfurt, 2017) and BID Quality Award.
  • Recognition as one of the 100 Most Outstanding Women Entrepreneurs in Ghana (2016).

Patty’s legal training has included judicial shadowing at the Business and Property Courts and Immigration and Asylum Chamber, as well as pro bono work at the Immigration Tribunal (Taylor House), reflecting her passion for access to justice.

Her upcoming call to the Bar represents a merging of her entrepreneurial acumen, community leadership, and legal advocacy—solidifying her as a bridge between business, philanthropy, and justice in Ghana and the UK.

Fitch Solutions retains 2025 growth rate projection at 4.2%

 Fitch Solutions has reaffirmed its projection that Ghana’s economy will expand by 4.2% in 2025. This estimate slightly exceeds the International Monetary Fund’s forecast of 4% and the World Bank’s projection of 3.9%. The UK-based research firm attributes its outlook to historically high gold prices, which are expected to cushion the Ghanaian economy against a global slowdown triggered by rising tariffs. Higher gold prices are anticipated to strengthen government revenue, enhance foreign exchange earnings, and help sustain currency stability. The report also highlights that Ghana is relatively less vulnerable to increasing trade restrictions from the United States, given that its primary exports—gold and crude oil—are not directly affected by the tariffs introduced by President Trump’s administration. Moreover, the US constitutes only about 4% to 5% of Ghana’s total exports. In contrast, Ghana’s trade relations are more heavily oriented toward China and European countries, particul...

BoG injects $20m into FX market to support 11 BDCs

  The Bank of Ghana (BoG) has injected $20 million into the foreign exchange market in the latest round of its forward FX auction targeted at Bulk Oil Distribution Companies (BDCs).

By directly supplying FX to BDCs, the central bank seeks to ease pressure on the interbank market, guarantee the uninterrupted flow of petroleum products, and mitigate the pass-through effects of exchange rate fluctuations on fuel prices.
