The government has paid US$709 million to holders of restructured Eurobond ahead of the due date.
According to a statement from the Finance Ministry, this marks a significant milestone in Ghana’s economic recovery and debt-management efforts.
This brings the total payments in 2025 alone to US$1.4 billion to Eurobond holders under the restructuring memorandum, comprising payments of US$349.52 million, US$349.52 million, and US$709.00 million.
It also added that the timely settlement reaffirms Ghana’s credibility as a sovereign borrower and underscores government’s commitment to restoring investor confidence through transparent, predictable, and disciplined debt-service practices.
Stabilising the Economy
The Ministry of Finance went ahead to assure that “Building on this achievement, Government will intensify reforms in domestic revenue mobilisation, public financial management, and public debt management”.
On the fiscal front, the government added that fiscal buffers will continue to be strengthened to support debt-service obligations and sustainably finance Ghana’s development agenda.
It also noted that “government will want to thank the good people of Ghana for their support and understanding, which have been vital to the country’s economic recovery.”
The government also noted that it will continue to appeal for continued forbearance and cooperation as further economic reforms are implemented in the coming year to consolidate the gains achieved in 2025, adding that “may 2026 be our best year yet”.
