The Country Senior Partner of PwC Ghana, Vish Ashiagbor, has expressed optimism that Ghana’s inflation will continue on its downward trend in the coming months, citing growing economic stability and improved coordination between fiscal and monetary policies.
Speaking at the 2025 PwC Cyber Forum in Accra, Mr. Ashiagbor noted that the steady drop in inflation to 8 percent signals renewed confidence in the economy and effective management by policymakers.
He said if government maintains fiscal discipline and the private sector continues to respond positively, the country could experience even greater price stability.
“The fact that inflation has fallen to 8 percent reflects a stronger macroeconomic framework. If we sustain this momentum and build private sector confidence, we could see a more stable price environment,” Mr. Ashiagbor said.
The 2025 PwC Cyber Forum brought together key stakeholders from government, the private sector, and the tech community to discuss emerging threats and opportunities in the digital landscape.
At the same event, the Director-General of the National Cyber Security Authority (NCSA), Divine Selasi Agbeti, called for deeper intelligence sharing between public institutions and private technology firms to counter the growing wave of cyber threats.
Mr. Agbeti warned that fragmented systems and limited collaboration have made businesses increasingly vulnerable to attacks.
He emphasized that a culture of transparency and joint action is crucial to building national cyber resilience.
“Cybersecurity is not just a government issue, it’s a shared responsibility. Without intelligence sharing and coordinated response, our systems remain exposed,” he said.
The discussions at the forum highlighted the intersection between economic stability and digital security, underscoring the importance of coordinated policy efforts to ensure sustainable growth and safeguard Ghana’s digital economy.
