The euro also recorded an increase, with its buying rate rising from GH¢13.0286 to GH¢13.0616. Its selling rate increased from GH¢13.0415 to GH¢13.0745.

This means the cedi lost GH¢0.0330 against the euro on both the buying and selling rates.

The latest BoG figures therefore show stability against the dollar at the start of September, while the cedi has come under renewed pressure against the pound and euro.

The exchange rates are important for businesses and consumers because movements in major currencies can affect the cost of imported goods, international payments, travel and other foreign exchange transactions.
