Trading activity on the Ghana Fixed Income Market improved on Tuesday, June 2, 2026, with total market turnover rising to GH¢1.19 billion.
According to the GFIM trading report, the market recorded 398 trades across new Government of Ghana bonds, DDEP bonds, Treasury bills, corporate bonds and sell-buy back transactions.

New Government of Ghana notes and bonds recorded GH¢639,213 across two trades, while no trades were recorded in old Government of Ghana notes and bonds.
The day’s turnover was higher than the GH¢1.14 billion recorded in the previous session, pointing to a modest rebound in market activity.
In the Treasury bills segment, the largest volume traded was the GOG-BL-08/02/27-A6964-1992-0, which recorded GH¢122.41 million in a single trade. The instrument closed at a yield of 8.32 per cent and a closing price of 94.6542.
The largest DDEP bond trade was recorded in the GOG-BD-02/02/38-A6154-1838-10.00, which posted GH¢2.35 million across three trades. The bond closed at a yield of 12.33 per cent and a closing price of 85.7331.

In the new Government of Ghana bonds segment, the GOG-BD-29/03/33-A6155-2001-12.50 recorded GH¢639,213 across two trades, closing at a yield of 12.48 per cent and a price of 100.0559.
Sell-buy back activity was led by the GOG-BD-13/02/29-A6145-1838-8.65, which recorded GH¢213.14 million across three trades. The instrument closed at a yield of 12.51 per cent and a weighted average closing price of 91.3098.
The trading pattern shows that short-term government securities continue to anchor activity on the fixed income market, even as sell-buy back transactions remain an important liquidity-management channel for market participants.
Treasury bills accounted for the majority of trades, while sell-buy back deals accounted for a substantial share of traded value, underlining continued demand for collateralised transactions in Government of Ghana securities.
For investors, the signal remains clear: liquidity on the fixed income market is still concentrated in Treasury bills and selected government bond transactions, while corporate bonds and longer-dated securities continue to record thinner activity.
The broader message from Tuesday’s session is that the GFIM remains active, but market depth is still uneven, with short-term instruments and liquidity-management trades carrying most of the day’s turnover.
