How will the US election affect Ghana’s economy?

1.

Trade Relations and Export Markets The US is a significant trading partner for Ghana, with exports such as oil, cocoa, and minerals forming key parts of the trade relationship.

A change in US administration could bring shifts in trade policies, particularly if there is a move towards increased tariffs, new trade agreements, or protectionist barriers.

A protectionist stance may hinder Ghanaian exports to the US or raise costs, affecting local producers and potentially reducing foreign exchange inflows.
