By News1

In a move signalling improved fiscal discipline, Ghana has honoured a US$700 million Eurobond maturity ahead of schedule, the Ministry of Finance has confirmed.

The early repayment, which includes US$525.2 million in principal and US$174.8 million in interest, forms part of the Government’s broader strategy under the Eurobond Debt Exchange Programme.

Total redemptions to bondholders since the start of 2025 now stand at US$2.1 billion.

Crucially for markets, the Ministry assured that the payment was covered under existing financing arrangements, ensuring that Ghana’s foreign exchange reserves remain unaffected.

Analysts view the development as a positive signal for sovereign creditworthiness, potentially paving the way for improved access to international capital markets.

“The successful settlement further demonstrates our continued commitment to prudent debt management and macroeconomic stability,” the statement read.

The Government also reiterated its focus on public financial management reforms, thanking citizens for their support as the country consolidates its economic recovery trajectory.
