Ghana’s inflation projected to stay below 10% for next three to four years – Theo Acheampong

Economist and political risk analyst, Dr. Theo Acheampong, has stated that Ghana's inflation is expected to remain below 10% over the next three to four years. During an appearance on Joy News' PM Express, he cited the government's medium-term fiscal projections which indicated sustained single-digit inflation. Dr. Acheampong was responding to a question about the government's ability to guarantee price stability in 2027 and 2028.

He clarified that his comments represented a projection rather than a guarantee, and that the budget framework outlined expectations for growth, inflation, economic size, and fiscal balances. He also pointed viewers to the 2025 budget projections for comparison. For workers, he argued that sustained single-digit inflation would benefit them on average with wage increases of 9% or 10%. His argument depended on the inflation outlook remaining consistent.
