Ghana will beat IMF’s upgraded 5.7% growth forecast – Ato Forson
Finance Minister Dr Cassiel Ato Forson says Ghana’s economy will grow beyond the International Monetary Fund’s revised projection of 5.7% for 2026.
Finance Minister Dr Cassiel Ato Forson has declared that Ghana’s economy will outperform the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) upgraded growth forecast of 5.7% for 2026. The IMF had recently raised its growth forecast for Ghana from 4.6% in April, a 1.1 percentage point increase. "The IMF has upgraded Ghana’s 2026 growth forecast from 4.6% to 5.7%.
We are confident we will exceed that projection," Dr Forson affirmed. He emphasized the government's dedication to fiscal discipline and the reforms aiding the nation's economic revival. This declaration came after a meeting with Zeine Zeidane, Director of the IMF’s African Department, during the IMF–World Bank Annual Meetings in Bangkok, Thailand.
"In Bangkok, I met with the IMF’s African Department Director, Zeine Zeidane, and reaffirmed our commitment to the fiscal credibility, discipline and bold reforms powering Ghana’s economic turnaround," Dr Forson stated.
