The SSNIT explained that recent advertisements in the Daily Graphic and Ghanaian Times were not invitations to potential buyers but calls for qualified consultants to provide advisory services.

The initiative, it stressed, is aimed at strengthening its hotel operations rather than divesting assets.

According to a report by Citinewsrrom, the consultants will work with Golden Beach Hotels Limited, managers of La Palm Royal Beach Resort, Elmina Beach Resort and Busua Beach Resort.

Their role includes assessing performance, recommending turnaround strategies and developing a five-year plan to improve competitiveness and profitability.

“The engagement is therefore a business improvement and strategic planning exercise intended to enhance operational performance and preserve value, not a divestment process,” the statement noted.

SSNIT added that Labadi Beach Hotel remains a strong strategic asset and continues to perform well.

It reassured contributors and pensioners of its commitment to prudent investment management and safeguarding pension funds.
