2027 Budget: Stability returned in Ghana's economy, Ghanaians can breathe again - Finance Minister

Finance Minister Dr Cassiel Ato Forson has declared that Ghana's economy has regained stability and investor confidence following what he described as the most painful economic crisis in the country's history.

Presenting the 2027 Budget Statement to Parliament on Thursday, November 12, he said the country had made significant progress in recovering from the crisis, allowing Ghanaians to experience some relief from the economic difficulties of recent years.

“Ghana has made significant gains, has emerged from the most painful economic crisis in our history, stability has returned, confidence is back, and Ghanaians can breathe again,” he said.

Dr Forson acknowledged, however, that the recovery had come at a considerable cost to citizens, particularly through the debt restructuring programme, which he said had imposed severe hardships on households and other economic stakeholders.
