The Bank of Ghana published Governor Johnson Pandit Asiama’s opening remarks at the launch of the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre’s 2025 Annual Investment Report, highlighting renewed investment activity alongside improved macroeconomic conditions. The report recorded approximately USD 2.61 billion in new investments across 253 projects in 2025, including nearly USD 686 million across 71 wholly Ghanaian-owned projects. Investment also expanded beyond Greater Accra, with growing interest in manufacturing, agribusiness, logistics and technology-enabled services. The governor noted that headline inflation had fallen from above 54% during the recent economic difficulties to 4.6% in July 2026, while the cedi had recovered against major currencies and external reserves had strengthened. Remaining priorities include reducing the cost of capital, addressing infrastructure gaps and converting investment commitments into productive capacity, exports and jobs. The Bank of Ghana is also working with financial institutions, fintech companies and investment partners to develop financial products that channel diaspora remittances into productive investment, enterprise development and job creation. It invited stakeholders to help shape a suite of market-ready solutions intended to mobilize diaspora savings for national development.
