Finance Minister Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson has reiterated the government’s commitment to meeting the conditions of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) programme while ensuring the successful completion of Ghana’s debt restructuring efforts.
“We have taken concrete steps to correct the structural benchmarks that were missed under the previous government, and the results will soon be evident,” Dr. Forson stated.
He acknowledged that Ghana had previously fallen short of meeting certain structural targets under the IMF programme but assured that corrective measures have been implemented to bring the country back on track.
Providing an update on the ongoing debt restructuring process, Dr. Forson noted significant progress in negotiations with external creditors. He emphasized that the current priority is finalizing individual bilateral agreements, a crucial step toward stabilizing the economy.
He further appealed to Germany for support in accelerating the restructuring process, stressing that securing these agreements is vital to Ghana’s economic recovery.
