President John Dramani Mahama has announced that Ghana is on track to successfully complete its International Monetary Fund (IMF) programme by April 2026, pointing to notable improvements in the country’s economic performance.
Addressing participants at the Ghana–Zambia Business Dialogue in Lusaka on Friday, February 6, President Mahama said inflationary pressures are easing, foreign exchange reserves have strengthened, and investor confidence has rebounded following key fiscal reforms.
He noted that the improving economic outlook positions Ghana to scale up trade and investment opportunities, particularly within the framework of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA).
According to President Mahama, the recent economic gains support Ghana’s broader development strategy, which rests on five core pillars: industrialisation and value addition; export-led growth; modern infrastructure development; enhanced support for MSMEs, women and youth entrepreneurs; and the promotion of a transparent, predictable and investor-friendly business climate.
