Activity was concentrated in the February 2030 maturity, which led to flows with GH¢464.80 million in volumes traded.
The 2027-2030 bonds continued to anchor market activity, accounting for 71.20% of total volumes at a weighted average yield of 15.30%.

“We anticipate a modest uptick in market activity as asset managers rebalance portfolios ahead of month-end”, Databank Research said.
However, trading sentiment is expected to remain measured, with investors adopting a cautious stance pending fiscal direction from the upcoming 2026 Budget presentation.
