The Governor of the Bank of Ghana, Dr. Johnson Pandit Asiama, has reaffirmed the central bank’s commitment to consolidating recent macroeconomic gains and strengthening long-term resilience within Ghana’s financial system.
Speaking at a meeting with the UK-Ghana Chamber of Commerce at Bank Square on Monday, February 23, 2026, Dr. Asiama stated that disciplined monetary policy and regulatory reforms are beginning to produce measurable results.
According to him, the measures have contributed to a sharp decline in inflation and improved business and consumer confidence, signalling a steady recovery within the broader economy.
“Durability requires stronger business models, broader ownership, deeper intermediation, disciplined innovation, and sound governance,” he emphasised.
The Governor noted that while stabilisation remains a priority, the Bank’s broader objective is to build a more competitive and resilient banking and financial sector capable of supporting sustainable long-term growth.
He assured members of the Chamber that the central bank remains committed to transparency, stakeholder collaboration, and policy consistency to reinforce macroeconomic stability and boost investor confidence.
Dr. Asiama’s remarks come as the Bank of Ghana continues to implement a series of monetary tightening and regulatory measures aimed at restoring price stability and strengthening oversight of the financial sector.
Recent data show that Ghana’s headline inflation fell sharply to 3.8 percent in January 2026 — the lowest level recorded in five years — while the central bank reduced its policy rate to 15.5 percent, reflecting easing inflationary pressures and renewed confidence within the economy.
