Widespread enthusiasm greets Krif Foundation’s upcoming Regal Influence Summit


 Interest in the upcoming high-level Regal Influence Summit, organized by the Krif Foundation, continues to surge across Africa.

A team from the foundation recently visited Nigeria and other countries as part of efforts to deepen engagement ahead of the event.

During the visit, they met with senators, past and present, as well as former governors and high profile officials, to discuss Africa’s collective leadership vision and the summit’s role in advancing it.

According to the KRIF Foundation, the warm reception and commitment expressed during these meetings reflect the growing enthusiasm among African leaders to be part of a continental dialogue on influence, leadership, and legacy.

In a statement, the organisers said coordinators in several African countries have also been sending in positive updates, confirming participation of high profile personalities who have been pledging support for the summit’s mission.

The response from across the continent has been overwhelmingly encouraging,” the foundation’s statement dated November 10, and signed by Managing Director Awura Adjoa Okosun, read in part.

“We are witnessing a renewed sense of unity and purpose among African leaders who believe that true influence must serve people, shape policy, and inspire transformation,” it added

The three-day summit, scheduled to take place at the La Palm Royal Beach Hotel in Accra, will bring together Heads of State, First Ladies, Royal Majesties, policymakers, CEOs, philanthropists, and innovators under the theme “Commanding Influence, Shaping Nations.”

The event which also features the Regal Influence Leadership Awards, will provide a platform for redefining leadership through collaboration, innovation, and legacy-building initiatives that advance Africa’s voice in global affairs.

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). The intervention, which benefited eleven BDCs, is part of the central bank’s broader strategy to stabilise the cedi and ensure price stability in the petroleum downstream sector. Held on Tuesday, April 29, the auction was priced at a locked exchange rate of GHS 14.28 to the US dollar, with bid offers ranging from GHS 13.85 to GHS 15.55. This move reflects the BoG’s continued effort to deepen forex liquidity and safeguard the domestic fuel supply chain against volatility in global energy markets. 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. The $20 million disbursement forms part of a $120 million programme for th...
