The IMF stipulates that Ghana needs a debt relief agreement from official creditors for continued disbursements under its USD 3 bln program. An initial disbursement of USD 600 mln was given, with another contingent upon debt treatment agreements. Ghana is restructuring its USD 50 billion debt, having completed domestic debt adjustments, and aiming to revamp about USD 13 bln in Eurobonds. The nation’s inflation decelerated to 40.1% in August, while its currency recovered some of its losses against the USD.
