Ghana

Ghana’s annual inflation rate slightly increased to 23.5% in January, up from 23.2% the previous month, remaining significantly above the central bank’s target range of 6% to 10%. This rise follows five months of declines, influenced by a depreciating currency. Non-food inflation rose to 20.5% from 18.7% in December, while food inflation decreased to 27.1% from 28.7%.
