Diaspora Investment & Business Support

Investing in Ghana from abroad should not mean trusting a distant relative and hoping. Amentem is the accountable partner on the ground for the diaspora — verifying land before you pay, registering companies correctly, managing your obligations, and reporting clearly in your time zone.

What we do

We are your eyes and hands in Ghana: company formation, land verification and purchase, real estate and build oversight, tax and compliance management, and regular written reporting so you always know exactly what is happening with your money.

What's included

Company registration and GIPC setup; verified land acquisition; property and construction oversight; GRA tax and statutory compliance; bank account and operational setup; and structured written and photographic reporting in your time zone.

Why Amentem

Everything runs through one accountable firm with documentation at every step. You never wire money against a promise — only against verified, reported reality.

Who this is for

  • Ghanaians abroad building or buying at home
  • Diaspora investors starting a business in Ghana
  • Families managing property or land from overseas
  • Anyone who has been let down by an informal arrangement

Frequently asked questions

I live abroad — can you set up my business and buy land for me?

Yes. That is exactly what the Diaspora Desk does: incorporation, verified land purchase, and setup handled remotely, with reporting before every major step and payment.

How do I know my money is being used properly?

Every step is documented and reported to you in writing, with photographs for property and land. You approve and pay against verified progress, not promises.

Where we work

We are headquartered in Accra and work across Ghana — Kumasi, Takoradi, Tamale, Cape Coast and Ho — and with clients throughout West Africa, including Nigeria, Côte d'Ivoire, Senegal and Togo.

Beyond the region, we support companies expanding into East and Southern African markets such as Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania and South Africa under the AfCFTA, and we advise international businesses entering Africa for the first time.

We also work extensively with the diaspora. Whether you are in the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, Germany, the Netherlands or the Gulf, we act as your accountable team on the ground and report in your time zone.

Working with Amentem

Every engagement is led by a partner, not handed to a junior. You get one accountable point of contact, written updates you can act on, and clear scope agreed before any work starts — so you always know what is being done, by whom, and what it costs.

We work remotely as standard, which means distance is never a barrier. Documents are shared securely, meetings are scheduled around your time zone, and you receive the same standard of service whether you are down the road in Accra or several continents away.

What it costs and how long it takes

Every engagement is scoped and priced before it starts, so there are no surprises. Smaller pieces of work are quoted as a fixed fee; ongoing support is available on a monthly retainer. We will tell you honestly if what you need is smaller than you think, or if it is not something we should be doing for you at all.

Timelines depend on what is involved and on third parties such as registries, regulators and counterparties. We give you a realistic schedule at the outset and tell you promptly when something outside our control changes it.

Why this matters

Most of the expensive problems we are asked to fix were cheap to prevent. A missed filing, an unverified title, a system nobody was trained on, a contract nobody read — each starts small and compounds. Getting this right early costs a fraction of correcting it later, and it removes the risk that quietly limits what your organisation can do next.
