The Government of Ghana has successfully settled a US$709 million Eurobond obligation that was due in early 2026, marking a significant milestone in the country’s ongoing economic recovery and debt management efforts.
In a statement issued on Tuesday, December 30, 2025, the Ministry of Finance confirmed that the payment was made ahead of schedule using funds from existing cash buffers. The government described the settlement as a reaffirmation of Ghana’s credibility as a sovereign borrower and a demonstration of its commitment to restoring investor confidence.
“The timely settlement reaffirms Ghana's credibility as a sovereign borrower and underscores the government’s commitment to restoring investor confidence through transparent, predictable and disciplined debt-service practices,” the Ministry stated.
With this latest payment, total disbursements to Eurobond holders in 2025 now amount to approximately US$1.4 billion under Ghana’s debt restructuring memorandum. This figure includes two earlier payments of US$349.52 million each, in addition to the US$709 million settled this week.
The Ministry of Finance expressed appreciation to Ghanaians for their patience and support throughout the economic recovery process, noting that public cooperation has been critical to the progress achieved so far.
According to the government, the successful settlement signals a firm commitment to honouring external debt obligations in a transparent and disciplined manner. Authorities indicated that the achievement will be built upon through intensified reforms in domestic revenue mobilisation, public financial management, and public debt management. The government also pledged to continue strengthening fiscal buffers to ensure the sustainable financing of national development priorities.
