原文原文 / Original TextThe Bank of Ghana (BoG) has announced tougher sanctions against customers who issue dud cheques to check the persistent rise in the practice despite earlier measures introduced to curb the offence.
In a notice issued on June 24, 2026, the central bank expressed concern over the continued issuance of dishonoured cheques by some customers of banks and specialised deposit-taking institutions (SDIs), warning that the trend was undermining confidence in the country's payment system.
The notice, numbered BG/GOV/SEC/2026/12, introduces a graduated sanctions regime aimed at deterring offenders and safeguarding the integrity of cheque transactions.
A statement issued by the BoG and signed by the Secretary, Ms Aimee Vyda Quashie and copied to The Ghanaian Times, said under the new directive, a customer who issued a dud cheque for the first time would be charged a penalty equivalent to 10 per cent of the cheque's face value.

The customer would also receive a formal warning from the bank or SDI and be placed under surveillance for at least one year.
The statement said details of the offence would be reported to both the Credit Reference Bureaus and the Bank of Ghana.
"Customers who repeat the offence within a year of the first incident will face stiffer penalties. A second offence will attract a levy of 15 per cent of the cheque's value, accompanied by another warning and fresh reporting to the relevant authorities," the statement said.
