GoldBod plans US$1.5bn forex injection to support cedi stability

GoldBod, the Ghana Gold Board, has announced a US$1.5 billion forex injection to support the stability of the cedi in October 2026. The programme aims to supply US$1 billion to commercial banks and US$500 million to the Bank of Ghana for reserve accumulation. The move comes as the cedi shows signs of appreciation against the US dollar, with the interbank market recording more than three consecutive weeks of positive movement.
