Bank of Ghana woos Asian investors with lower inflation, improved credit rating

The Bank of Ghana has actively sought to attract Asian investors to the country by highlighting key factors such as lower inflation, improved debt sustainability, and an upgraded sovereign credit rating. Dr. Zakari Mumuni, First Deputy Governor of the Bank of Ghana, made these points during the IMF-World Bank Annual Meetings in Bangkok, Thailand.

He emphasized that Ghana's inflation rate has stabilized at 5.2% in September 2026, within the bank's target band, and that Moody's has upgraded Ghana's credit rating to B3 from Caa1. These developments reflect improvements in the country's macroeconomic environment and have made it an increasingly appealing investment destination for Asian businesses.

Dr. Mumuni identified sectors such as agro-processing, manufacturing, energy, transport, logistics, digital services, and financial technology as promising areas for investment, aiming to support Ghana's economic transformation and job creation. He also highlighted that Ghana could serve as a gateway for Asian investors to access other African markets under the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA).
