IMF Review in Final Stages as Ghana Eyes $360m Disbursement

Ghana’s fifth review under the International Monetary Fund (IMF) programme has entered its final stages, with negotiations expected to conclude by October 10, 2025.

A successful outcome will unlock a $360 million disbursement, raising the country’s total receipts under the $3 billion Extended Credit Facility (ECF) to $2.66 billion.

The IMF mission, led by Dr. Ruben Atoyan, has been in Accra since late September, engaging technical teams from the Ministry of Finance and the Bank of Ghana to assess Ghana’s progress on fiscal consolidation, debt restructuring, and monetary policy targets.

According to sources close to the discussions, this round of talks is placing strong emphasis on domestic revenue mobilisation — seen as a cornerstone of Ghana’s long-term economic recovery strategy.

A positive review is expected to reinforce investor confidence, bolster foreign exchange reserves, and support ongoing efforts to stabilise the economy.
