\"Dr <\/a>Dr Cassiel Ato Forson is the Minister of Finance<\/p>\n

The Government of Ghana has settled a US$709 million Eurobond obligation, completing the payment on December 30, 2025, ahead of schedule.<\/p>\n

According to the Minister of Finance, Dr <\/a>Cassiel Ato Forson<\/a>, the payment represents a major milestone in Ghana\u2019s ongoing economic recovery and public debt management program, following the country\u2019s recent Eurobond restructuring.<\/p>\n

The minister noted that the latest settlement brings Ghana\u2019s total Eurobond payments in 2025 to US$1.4 billion, made in line with the restructuring memorandum. This includes two earlier installments of US$349.52 million each, in addition to the US$709 million payment.<\/p>\n

The timely fulfilment of the obligation, the minister said, reinforces Ghana\u2019s credibility as a sovereign borrower and underscores government\u2019s commitment to restoring investor confidence through transparent, predictable and disciplined debt-servicing practices.<\/p>\n

Building on the achievement, government indicated that it will intensify reforms in critical areas such as domestic revenue mobilisation, public financial management and public debt management, with the aim of ensuring long-term fiscal sustainability.<\/p>\n

\u201cFiscal buffers will continue to be strengthened to support debt-service obligations and sustainably finance Ghana\u2019s development agenda,\u201d Dr Forson wrote in a post via X on Wednesday December 31, 2025.<\/p>\n

\u201cMay 2026 be our best year yet,\u201d the finance minister concluded.<\/p>\n
