Ghana’s economy grew strongly in late 2025, with inflation falling and fiscal health improving, but credit growth remains weak.
Ghana’s economic outlook improved in late 2025, with rising consumer and business confidence, strong GDP growth of 6.3% in Q2 driven by services and agriculture, and inflation falling to 8.7%—its lowest in four years—due to tighter monetary policy, fiscal discipline, and a stronger cedi.
The central bank cut its policy rate by 350 basis points to 21.5%, lowering borrowing costs, while the budget deficit remained low at 1.1% of GDP and public debt dropped to 44.9%.
Despite these gains, credit growth stayed weak, with real private-sector lending rising just 1.7%, constrained by high credit risk and limited bank lending.
The external sector strengthened, recording a $6.2 billion trade surplus and reserves covering 4.5 months of imports.
Sustained recovery hinges on improving credit access to match stronger macroeconomic momentum.
