Hahahaha. If we have the strength, let the rate stay at Ghc6 to a dollar to avoid dumping of foreign goods and save local industry. We should channel the gains to machinery to propel industrialisation. Piaw!

Is the appreciation of the Cedi due to good government policy intervetions or is it because the Dollar is depreciating?

Funny enough,the government is not taking credit for this, according to the government,it is due to some external factors. The US dollar is really depreciating internationally because of the trade war between Americans and China. I think the government should rather find a way to sustain it.

So why did the reporter add that the bank of Ghana sold US $200m in the last quarter of 2024? Is the reporter trying to play mischief by sighting something that happened over six months ago or what? What has selling of USD 200m in October 2024 got to do with the current performance of the Cedi in May 2025? What sort of mischievous reporting is this?

@osika, u are 100% right.. the govt of Ghana needs to take advantage and strengthen the cedi to the dollar..also Mahama needs to set up a task force for price control..even tough the cedi is appreciating against the major currencies especially the dollar yet some market women are refusing to reduce their goods and services..Mahama needs to deploy price control into the markets so they can see to it that Ghanaians are feeling the appreciation of the cedi..most market women are still wicked and adamant..they refuse to reduce their goods and services..Mahama please deploy some price control into the markets..they cannot be using old prices especially when the cedi is appreciating against the dollar and major currencies..

The strength of a country's currency depends on the strength of the country's economy and total foreign debt on the country's neck. Kufour was able to bring the value of the then new Ghana Cedi at par with the US dollar at the time because after Ghana's external loans were forgiven because of HIPIC, Ghana ended up with no external debt whereas it continued to increase its foreign reserves. With a relatively good economy at the time, Ghana's economy became better compared to the American economy at the time, hence the value of Ghana Cedi was able to be pegged equal to the American dollar. At some point the Ghana Cedi was even stronger than the dollar. However, the Ghana Cedi fortunes turned downward during Mills' Presidency, and it has continued its deterioration to up to date

Good, we want it to come to 1 US Dollar to 5 Cedis, it will be 1 to 10 by the end of this month, the fundamentals are right, bye bye to useless NPP government for the next 100 years.
