...MUTUAL FUNDING: IMPACT ON THE GHANAIAN ECONOMY A comparative study of two mutual funds companies in Kumasi DEPARTMENT OF BUSINESS STUDIES EDMUNDSON LAWRENCE KOBINA 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY Over the years in Ghana, the private sector has had it difficult raising capital and adequate funds for investment and other business activities, this led to the undertaking of a number of financial sector reforms by the government. The emergence of mutual funds into the Ghanaian financial sector has been as a result of these reforms. This is to facilitate capital generation and savings mobilization for the private sector to help them accomplish their organizational objectives. It has become evidently clear that, to achieve development in the economy in terms of high gross domestic product (GDP), a better per capita income, less unemployment and reduction in inflation, the private sector of the economy should be encouraged to lead in the generation of wealth.

This has not been so easy in recent years due to the diversification of these funds to countries such as China and other Asian countries that are now better...
