Finance Minister Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson has declared Ghana’s economy on a strong recovery trajectory, crediting “significant progress” in restoring fiscal discipline, investor confidence, and economic clarity under the Mahama administration.
In the 2025 Mid-Year Budget Review presented to Parliament on Thursday, July 24, Dr. Forson emphasized that the government’s fiscal performance has exceeded expectations within its first 200 days.
“Mr. Speaker, in less than 200 days, we have restored clarity, certainty, stability, and purpose to our economic policy direction,” he told the House.
“The signs of recovery are clear, evident, and tangible — and they are being felt across the nation.”
Dr. Forson announced that Ghana achieved a primary balance surplus of 11.1% of GDP on a commitment basis by June 2025, far surpassing the government’s target of 0.4% for the period.
