The government of Ghana has met its final US$709 Eurobond obligation to investors this year.
The Ministry of Finance settled the US$709 million Eurobond obligation on 30th December 2025, ahead of its due date, which according to the Finance Minister Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson marks “another significant milestone in Ghana’s economic recovery and debt-management efforts.”
The latest settlement brings total payments in 2025 alone to “US$1.4 billion to Eurobond holders under the restructuring memorandum, comprising payments of US$349.52 million, US$349.52 million, and US$709.00 million.”
In a post on social media Dr. Forson further argued “the timely settlement reaffirms Ghana’s credibility as a sovereign borrower and
underscores Government’s commitment to restoring investor confidence through
transparent, predictable, and disciplined debt-service practices.”
The Ajumako Enyan Essiam MP assured of reforms to ensure increased domestic revenue mobilization and prudent economic management.
“Building on this achievement, Government will intensify reforms in domestic revenue mobilisation, public financial management, and public debt management.”
“Fiscal buffers will continue to be strengthened to support debt-service obligations and sustainably finance Ghana’s development agenda.” Dr. Forson further assured
He expressed appreciation to Ghanaians for what he terms their support and understanding, crediting that for the country’s economic recovery.
Dr. Forson also appealed for “continued forbearance and cooperation
as further economic reforms are implemented in the coming year to consolidate the gains
achieved in 2025.”
He ended with a prayer for the coming year to be the best one yet.
“May 2026 be our best year yet.” He concluded
The Nana Addo administration initiated a debt exchange program with external creditors including Eurobond holders before exiting power in 2025. The engagements were however finalized by the Mahama administration when it took office in 2025 thus the payments to the tune of US$1.4 billion to Eurobond holders this year.
