    Understanding Risk vs. Profit in Local Business | Disclosures Podcast

    The higher the risk, the higher the returns"—we hear it all the time, but do we actually understand how to protect ourselves when things go wrong? In this episode of the Disclosures Podcast, host Nyantakyi Bonna takes a transparent look at what risk really means for everyday business owners and investors. Pulling from real-world local contexts—including the high-competition hustle of selling Kantamanto shoes, navigating seasonal market flooding, and avoiding the trap of seductive Ponzi schemes—Bonna simplifies how professionals analyze and mitigate threats. Discover the T-A-R-A framework, a staple tool among business leaders, as this episode dives deep into: Risk Avoidance: When to walk away from a volatile venture entirely based on frequency and impact. Risk Transfer: How tools like insurance act as a financial buffer, stepping in to restore your business after an unexpected crisis. Whether you're starting a roadside container shop or investing heavily in an enterprise, learning how to gauge impact versus frequency will save your capital. 💬 Help Us Grow Our Community: If you find value in these conversations, please follow the show on this platform!

    How to Setup a Foolproof Emergency Fund (The 6-Month Savings Rule)

    When you happen to work with a government agency or occupy a respectable position in Ghana, everyone considers you a "Big Man." But that accolade comes with heavy expectations—from street hailing to family taxation. What happens when the month "negotiates a curve" and your salary runs out by the 15th? Where do you turn when you are the one who needs financial help? In Episode 6 of the Disclosures Podcast, we strip away the pride of "Big Man" culture to address a critical survival tool: the Emergency Fund. We break down the exact strategies you need to transition from surviving paycheck-to-paycheck to building a rock-solid financial cushion. In this episode, we discuss: • The Reality of Black Tax: How street and family expectations pressure your finances. • The Mid-Month Trap: Why relying on mobile money credit facilities and loans is an expensive mistake. • The 6-Month Rule: How to calculate exactly how much you need to survive a sudden job transition or income loss. • Practical Steps to Start: How to track expenditures and create a budget that works. • Automating Your Wealth: Using standing orders and direct debits to eliminate the reliance on willpower. • The 5-Day Rule: A brilliant strategy for positioning unexpected funds, tips, or bonuses instead of wasting them. • The Hardest Truth: Temporarily adjusting family support to secure your own financial baseline. Building a financial cushion is a habit, not an overnight event. Turn up the volume and learn how to start small but finish secure.

    The Costly Myths Killing Ghanaian Startups with Dickson Assan

    Four out of five small businesses in Ghana collapse before their 10th year—but a major reason isn't bad ideas, it's a lack of structure.In this episode of the Disclosure Podcast, we are recording live from the Oxygen, Mawuli School Corridor 3 at the 2026 ICAG Accountancy Conference. We sit down with Mr. Dickson Assan, a Chartered Accountant and one of LinkedIn’s top 5 most influential voices in Ghana, to break down why entrepreneurs avoid formalizing their businesses and the dangerous myths holding them back.From the crippling fear of the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) and SSNIT to cultural superstitions like "Black Tax" and family envy, Dickson exposes the real costs of keeping your business "low-key." He also drops major knowledge bombs on how the corporate veil can save your personal assets (like your house and car) if your business defaults on a loan, and how tax incentives can legally exempt young entrepreneurs under 35 from paying taxes for up to 5 years!If you are currently running a hustle, mixing your personal finances with your business cash, or hiding in the shadows to avoid regulators, this episode is your wake-up call to build a legacy that transcends you.
