Parliament has signaled a renewed push to shape the country’s digital finance future, with lawmakers urging regulators and industry players to prioritise trust, consumer protection and practical implementation. This comes as Parliament deepens engagement with regulators and the private sector following the passage of the Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASP) Bill in December 2025, aimed at bringing clarity and oversight to Ghana’s fast-growing digital asset space. Speaking at the launch of The Future of Finance Dialogues and the Ghana Virtual Assets Playbook in Accra, Chair of Parliament’s Select Committee on Information and Communications, Abed-Nego Lamangin Bandim, said digital finance was no longer a speculative frontier but already integral to how Ghanaians save, transact and invest. “Digital markets must expand without weakening public trust,” he said, stressing that innovation must progress alongside strong consumer protection and financial stability. He described the passage of the VASP Bill as a turning point in Ghana’s digital finance journey, noting that the legislation seeks to eliminate regulatory uncertainty around virtual assets while providing legal clarity for investors, innovators and regulators.
