Ghana in the second quarter of this year nominally recorded a trade surplus of GH₵5.4 billion driven by gold exports, the Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) trade report has revealed.

This means that the country exported more products than it brought into the coun­try in the second period under review.

This is the third consecutive time since the fourth quarter 2023 that the country has recorded trade surplus.

In the period under review, the value of the country's export nominally stood at GH₵64.2 billion while the value of imports at current prices stood at GH₵58.8 billion.
