The Finance Minister, Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, has reacted positively to the latest inflation figures, describing the continued decline as clear evidence that the economy is stabilising.
Inflation fell to 6.3% in November 2025, the lowest since the 2021 rebasing and the eleventh straight month of decline.
Dr. Forson said the numbers confirm that key reforms are delivering results.
He expressed particular satisfaction with the improvement in food prices.
“I am especially delighted by the sharp fall in food inflation, down from 9.5% in October to 6.6% in November,” he noted, adding that the shift will bring relief to households nationwide.
The Minister emphasised that the gains extend beyond food inflation.
“And it is not just food. Price pressures are easing across the board,” he said.
According to the latest data, local inflation dropped from 8.0% to 6.8%, while imported inflation decreased even faster from 7.8% to 5.0%.
Dr. Forson described the trend as a solid sign of recovery.
“This is real, measurable progress!” he stated.
Analysts say the sustained decline in inflation could support further economic stability and improve conditions for businesses and consumers as the recovery strengthens.
