High risk ,high reward. That's how investment works. The likelihood the US will default on a bond is virtually 0, while the default on a bond issue by Gh is really high. I will say next time he should do due diligence and have a financial advisor review the terms. I'm sure the bonds were rated junk bonds sef
He should have sought advice from Dr. Papa Kwesi Ndoum. lol Our leaders are just too wicked. Why would a village of over 100 people have to share water with animals in this country? So-called affordable houses are built with loan and are left empty while citizens whose taxes are being used to service the loan are denied the opportunity to stay in the houses for the past eight years.... SKANTY, if this is NOT WICKEDNESS, how do we call it?
Good content, but I think there is supposed to be some education here. There is a difference between Eurobond and the Government bonds that the government issues (also called Sovereign or Government bonds). The coupon payment (which is the payment received in the form of interest) is not paid monthly. For Sovereign bonds, it is paid normally twice a year. For Eurobonds, it is generally one year, however exceptions can be made to be paid semi-annually, or quarterly (in very exceptional cases), but not each month. I think Michael Blankson needs some education on that. Also, I don't know if he's referring to Government bonds as Eurobonds. As I mentioned earlier, they are different, however I may think he purchased the Eurobond and not the Government bonds. Government bonds can have different interest rates that doesn't have to match the interest rates of Eurobonds necessarily. Also, before he makes such statements, he ought to check the bond prospectus (it is an official document that would provide you with every information concerning the bond, it's maturity date, the issue date, the coupon payments and its corresponding interest rate and so on). That bond prospectus would tell him how often he would get his coupon payments. By now, it's set at default which is yearly. Meaning, he would receive $10k every year, and not monthly. We should remember that interest rates are normally annualized.
Firing squared must be reintroduced because these officials don’t really care. This story will just die. Imagine if Ghana can retrieve 60% of corrupted funds, how good will Ghana be! We have failed as a nation. Ghana used to be looked upon now we just beggars.
They don't want to eat their cake and have it. That is not an accurate analogy. What is happening is "they ate their cake, and now their snatching everyone else's."

And Ghanaian youth should learn from their peers. Kenyan youth have ground their government to dust for precisely the same exact reasons…..Kenya is more industrialized and has superior infrastructure than Ghana. Nobody is waiting for political or religious messiahs to save them there.
this no be bank matter. all those who invested in GoG bonds whether through an investment company or by themselves. suffered the haircut you can't blame the bank. it is the government that says they can't pay the money because the country is bankrupt
