Bank of Ghana Governor Dr Johnson Pandit Asiama speaking at the launch of the Ghana Investment Promotion (GIPC) 2025 Annual Investment Report, said the cedi’s recovery has been accompanied by stronger external reserves and increased economic activity across sectors.

“The Cedi has so far recorded a significant recovery against major international currencies, external reserves have been strengthened, and economic activity has gained momentum across sectors,” he said.

He said economic growth had become increasingly broad-based, supported by improvements in services and agriculture, alongside a gradual recovery in industry.
