Ghana has a GDP of 74 Billion USD which is the 8th highest GDP in Africa. However, the country’s GDP and economic growth are recovering after it was highly affected by the Corona Virus pandemic. The GDP growth had decreased from 6.5% in 2019 to 1.7% in 2020, especially due to the slump in oil prices and slow global economic activity. However, other sectors such as construction, manufacturing, and favorable cocoa and gold market helped Ghana survive the pandemic.
The increasing demand in Ghana’s major exports, improved business confidence, and successful implementation of the Ghana Covid-19 Alleviation and Revitalization of Enterprise support program have helped revive the country’s economic growth. The growth rate of Ghana’s economy is expected to reach 4% in 2021 and 4.1% in 2022. The inflation rate is also expected to drop to 8.2% in 2021 and 8% in 2022.
The fiscal deficit in Ghana is expected to drop to 7.2% in 2021 and 5.7% in 2022. Ghana’s ability to restore its economic growth is now only challenged by fiscal and debt risks. The country is expected to return to its fiscal responsibility budget deficit threshold of 5% in 2024.
Nonetheless, Ghana has positive economic outlook. With close to close 99 percent media penetration, businesses and organizations are taking advantage to reach their target audience through press release distribution.
