Falling interest rates could unlock billions in Ghana’s debt markets – Amo Agyapong

Ghana's declining interest rates could unlock significant opportunities in the country's domestic debt markets, according to Amo Agyapong, Chief Policy Officer of the Institute of Chartered Development Finance Analysts (ICDFA). Falling borrowing costs could mark a turning point for Ghana's financial markets, potentially transforming investment decisions, credit creation, and capital-market activity.

The impact could be particularly significant in Ghana's fixed-income market, where government securities have traditionally attracted substantial investment due to their relatively high yields. A sustained decline in Treasury-bill and bond yields could encourage investors to reassess their portfolios and explore longer-term investment opportunities, such as corporate bonds, infrastructure securities, and equities.
