The Standard Chartered bank Research boss, Razia Khan, says a revision of the Ghanaian economy may not necessary be good news.
The statistical service last month confirmed reports that the economy may be larger than presently estimated.
Head of Research at Standard Bank of Africa, Stephen Bailey-Smith, is quoted by Bloomberg as saying the bank’s research indicates the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) figure may have to be revised upwards by about fifty percent.
The service, however, adds that it will also carry out its own review which could push things up.
But the Standchart Research Boss for Africa said the review will also expose some serious challenges with the economy.
