The Government of Ghana has fully settled a US$700 million Eurobond obligation ahead of schedule, in a move the Ministry of Finance says reinforces the country's commitment to prudent debt management and macroeconomic stability.
The Ministry said the latest settlement brings the total amount paid to Eurobond holders since January 2025 to US$2.1 billion, in line with the terms agreed under Ghana's Eurobond Debt Exchange Programme.
It explained that the payment was financed through the Government's planned financing arrangements and did not place undue pressure on the country's foreign exchange reserves.
The Ministry noted that the settlement further reduces Ghana's outstanding Eurobond debt while strengthening investor confidence in the country's economic management.
It added that the successful payment demonstrates the Government's continued commitment to honouring its debt obligations and maintaining prudent public debt management as part of broader efforts to sustain macroeconomic stability.
The Ministry reaffirmed its commitment to implementing sound public financial management practices to ensure the timely servicing of Ghana's debt obligations.
It also expressed appreciation to the people of Ghana for their continued patience, support, and confidence as the Government continues to implement measures aimed at restoring and safeguarding the country's economic stability.
