President John Mahama has signed the 24-Hour Economy Authority Bill into law, providing full legal backing for one of the government’s key strategies for economic transformation.
Speaking shortly after assenting to the Bill, he noted that the process took time to ensure all legal requirements were thoroughly addressed.
“I have just signed to give assent to the 24-Hour Economy Authority Bill. This is legislation Ghanaians have long anticipated, as it forms a key part of our flagship strategy for economic transformation,” he said.
The President stressed that with the legal framework now established, attention must shift from planning to implementation.
“From this point, we must transition from strategy to action. The business community is ready, Ghanaian investors are ready, and foreign investors are ready,” he added.
He further explained that investors are eager to see the incentives package the government intends to introduce to spur investment, boost productivity, and generate sustainable jobs, particularly for the youth.

President Mahama thanked the team behind the legislation, specifically acknowledging Presidential Advisor Goosie Tanoh and his team for their contributions.
He said the signing marks a major step toward implementing the 24-hour economy policy and placing Ghana on a path to faster economic growth.
