At the Ghana–Zambia Business Dialogue in Lusaka on Friday, February 6, President John Dramani Mahama reassured business leaders and investors that Ghana is firmly on course to complete its International Monetary Fund (IMF) programme by April 2026.
Citing recent improvements in key economic indicators, Mahama pointed to easing inflation, robust foreign reserves, and renewed investor confidence as evidence of the country’s fiscal turnaround.
He attributed these gains to a series of fiscal reforms undertaken by his administration, which have helped stabilise the economy and set the stage for future growth.
“These gains provide a solid foundation for Ghana’s development agenda,” Mahama explained, outlining the government’s focus on five strategic pillars: industrialisation and value addition; export-led growth; modern infrastructure development; strong support for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), women, and youth entrepreneurs; and a predictable, transparent, investor-friendly business environment.
President Mahama emphasised that a stabilised economy will enable Ghana to take full advantage of opportunities presented by the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), expanding trade and investment across the continent. He concluded by expressing confidence that with continued discipline and reforms, Ghana will achieve sustainable growth and prosperity.
