Yaw Baah<\/strong><\/p>\n

The President has appointed Yaw Baah, a senior partner at Sterling Partnership Law Firm and a former Member of Parliament for Kumawu, as the chief executive officer of the newly established Minerals Income Investment Fund.<\/p>\n

This is pursuant to section 21(1) of the Minerals Income Investment Act, which was passed in 2018.<\/p>\n

This fund through its subsidiary entity will own and manage all the country\u2019s existing gold assets and maximise value derived from these assets.<\/p>\n

It is envisaged that it could raise between US$500 million to US$750 million immediately for governmental infrastructure development through its operations.<\/p>\n

This fund is the first of its kind in Africa and once the fund\u2019s subsidiary becomes fully operational, it will lend weight to the NPP government\u2019s goal of making Ghana the leading financial hub in West Africa.<\/p>\n

Profile<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mr Baah is a product of University of Ghana where he obtained his first degree in Economics and Political Science. He worked briefly at the then Ministry of Trade and Industry before leaving for post-graduate studies at Nottingham University in the United Kingdom. He later enrolled at the Lincoln\u2019s Inn and was called to the English Bar.<\/p>\n

He became a Member of Parliament for Kumawu in 2003 through a by-election. He exited Parliament in January 2013. During his tenure as a Parliamentarian, he chaired almost all the legal committees of Parliament, represented Parliament on the Georgina Wood Committee that probed the cocaine menace in 2006.<\/p>\n

Mr Baah was also the parliamentary representative on the Media Commission and was Ghana Parliament\u2019s sole representative to the Joint EU-ACP Parliament in Brussels.<\/p>\n
