Former Finance Minister Mohammed Amin Adam alleges that the Bank of Ghana's reported GHS15.6 billion net loss in 2025 masks deeper financial challenges, claiming that proceeds from the sale of about 18 tonnes of gold reserves (generating GHS9.57 billion in gains) were recognised as income to cushion operational losses, and that without these gains the loss would have exceeded GHS25 billion.
