In a related development, the country hopes to complete her IMF Bailout processes and receive some 3 billion dollars to stabilize the local economy by the end of May. This coupled with the fact that more engagements need to be done with regard to the debt restructuring efforts of the country maybe some of the contributing factors to the current upwards trend of the dollar’s strength against the local currency.
The Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta, has revealed that Ghana is likely to receive the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) Board approval for a $3 billion bailout by the close of May 2023.
Mr Ofori Atta speaking to Eurobond holders at an Investors Presentation Forum said Ghana has made significant progress in terms of restructuring its debt and called on external creditors to support the country’s application for an IMF programme.
“We do at this time expect an IMF board approval in May [2023] and contemplate a rapid negotiation of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with our creditors. We have made significant efforts on all fronts. We hope we could reach an agreement in principle with you our Eurobond holders quickly”.
