GRA pushes data-driven tax administration to boost revenue mobilisation
The Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) has said it is deepening the use of data analytics in tax administration, stressing that modern statistical tools will be critical to improving revenue mobilisation, strengthening compliance and supporting evidence-based decision-making.
The Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) is intensifying its use of data analytics in tax administration to improve revenue mobilisation and strengthen compliance. At the opening of the 2026 GRA Statistics and Data Analysts’ Seminar in Ho, the Technical Advisor to the Commissioner-General of the GRA, Elsie Appau-Klu, highlighted the need for a data-driven approach to keep pace with a rapidly evolving and increasingly digital economy.
The seminar, running from August 18 to August 22 at the Volta Serene Hotel, aims to equip modern statisticians with key roles such as detectives, risk managers, policy advisers, and guardians of data integrity. The GRA's efforts to leverage data analytics come as the country continues to grapple with significant challenges in tax revenue mobilisation, with the tax-to-GDP ratio remaining below potential.
