Effects Of Interest Rates On Business Developments In Ghana

ABSTRACT

This study examined the effects of interest rates on business developments in Ghana.

The convenient sampling procedure was used to select thirty (30) enterprises and four banks for the research. Regression analysis was the major statistical tool used to analyze the data collected. SPSS and Microsoft Excel software were used for the analysis.

From the research, it was found out that the higher the interest rate, the lower the demand for loans. In addition, high interest rates cripple infant industries. That is, higher interest rates tends to have an adverse effect on the development or growth of businesses in Ghana since they depend very much on availability and accessibility to funds at reasonable or favourable rates.
