There are marked restrictions on the operation of Foreign Exchange Accounts. This is because funds on the account are typically sourced internally from normal cash lodgments or credits from other Foreign Exchange Accounts of other Banks. Transfers from such accounts to external destinations are restricted; as they need to be supported by Bank of Ghana approved documentation.
