Interest rates recorded relative stability for the second week running, about 10 days since the government announced its intention to seek economic support from the International Monetary Fund.

This signifies that investors are gradually reposing confidence in the economy, following the government’s engagement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to help revive the economy.

So far, the yield of Ghana’s Eurobonds on the international market is becoming attractive. 

The improved liquidity on the market is expected to help government finance its programmes with ease.
