Ghana’s economy grows 4.7% in April 2026; services, mining sustain expansion

7% year-on-year growth in April 2026, with the services sector remaining the largest contributor to economic activity, while the industry benefited from stronger mining output.

The Monthly Indicator of Economic Growth is a high-frequency index designed to provide an early indication of quarterly GDP performance by tracking monthly economic activity across agriculture, industry and services.

The Ghana Statistical Service noted that while growth remained broad-based, economic activity expanded at a slower pace than a year earlier as momentum softened across the major sectors of the economy.
