EY urges continued reform as Ghana’s economy records strong mid-year performance

Ghana’s economic recovery is becoming increasingly entrenched, with stronger fiscal outcomes, moderating inflation, improving external buffers and resilient economic growth providing renewed confidence for businesses and investors, according to EY’s latest assessment of the Government’s 2026 Mid-Year Budget Review."Sustained reform implementation, enhanced revenue mobilisation, prudent debt management and increased investment in productive infrastructure will be critical in determining whether the country can successfully navigate its next phase of economic growth".

EY cautions that, whilst this prudent expenditure management has contributed to improved fiscal outturn, sustaining fiscal consolidation requires balancing expenditure discipline with targeted investments in infrastructure and other growth-enabling sectors.
