The Graphic Business\/Stanbic Bank Breakfast Meeting comes off today at the plush Labadi Beach Hotel in Accra.<\/h2>\n
The event, the fourth and final for the year, is on the theme: \u201c17 Times too many! What should we stop doing and start doing as a people\u2019\u2019?<\/p>\n
Key personalities from academia, civil society organisations, international organisations, trade associations, among others, are expected to grace the occasion to share their thoughts on how the country\u2019s economy can be restored to its former glory in order to avoid a return to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for a bailout.<\/p>\n
The quarterly event, which has Stanbic Bank, one of the best bank\u2019s in the country, as the main sponsor, has its theme divided into three main perspectives to offer panel members the opportunity to discuss in detail, the challenges and proffer solutions for consideration in the budget.<\/p>\n
The perspectives are: \u201cThe Challenge; What is, Has been and Why\u201d; \u201cAlternative Homegrown Solutions, Options and Requirements\u201d and \u201cWhat Ghana Must Do Differently\u201d.<\/p>\n
Speakers<\/strong><\/p>\n As a platform to offer suggestions into the 2023 budget statement, the organisers have assembled some of the top brains in the country to discuss the theme.<\/p>\n They include Professor Godfred Alufar Bokpin, one of the country\u2019s finest economists, a professor of finance and a Senior Lecturer at the University of Ghana, Legon; Mr Kwame Wiafe, Managing Director of Wilmar Ghana, to represent the Association of Ghana Industries (AGI), among others.<\/p>\n The event will be chaired by Dr Priscilla Twumasi Baffuor, an astute economist and Senior Lecturer at the University of Ghana.<\/p>\n The event comes at a time when the government is rallying all and sundry to come together to help turn around the economy.<\/p>\n
