The Ghana cedi closed the Christmas week steady against major trading currencies, posting marginal gains on the interbank market.

Data from the Bank of Ghana show that the cedi was trading at GH¢11.10 to the US dollar as of December 27, 2025.

The relative stability of the local currency is expected to help moderate the cost of imported goods such as food, clothing, electronics, and household items, which typically see increased demand during the Christmas and New Year festivities.

A stable cedi also offers some relief on fuel prices, as petroleum products are imported in dollars. This could help contain transportation costs and ease operational expenses for businesses.

Overall, while the gains remain modest, the cedi’s performance during the Christmas week is expected to support purchasing power and provide some relief to households during the festive season.
