Minister for Finance, Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, has emphasized the government’s commitment to sustaining the country’s ongoing economic recovery, assuring global investors that Ghana’s economy is firmly on track toward growth and stability.
Addressing a gathering of investors on the sidelines of the 2025 IMF and World Bank Annual Meetings in Washington, D.C., Dr. Forson stated confidently that Ghana is on track and government will sustain the gains.
He emphasized that recent improvements in key economic indicators, including reduced debt vulnerabilities and stronger macroeconomic fundamentals, demonstrate the effectiveness of the government’s policy interventions and reform agenda.
According to the Finance Minister, the structural and fiscal reforms being implemented are not only yielding positive results but are also designed to ensure lasting macroeconomic stability.
Dr. Forson noted that Ghana’s economic outlook remains bright, with strong growth expected in the final quarter of 2025, driven by a revitalized real sector. Inflation, which has already declined significantly, is also projected to ease further and stay within single digits by the end of the year.
He further revealed that the government is on course to achieve a positive primary balance of 1.5% of GDP by the close of the fiscal year, a milestone that would consolidate the gains made under ongoing fiscal reforms.
Dr. Forson highlighted the government’s unwavering commitment to fiscal discipline, anchored on tight expenditure controls and prudent financial management, to secure a stable and resilient economy.
