Ghana now has an opportunity to move from recovery to sustainable growth - Governor Asiama

Governor of the Bank of Ghana, Dr. Johnson Asiama has said that despite the economic difficulties Ghana faced in recent years, the country now has an opportunity to move from recovery to sustainable growth.

He said this while speaking at the 10th Ghana CEO Summit.

Dr. Asiama said Ghana has reached a critical stage in its economic journey following years of global shocks, domestic imbalances, and financial sector challenges.

“The question before us now is no longer whether Ghana can recover. The real question is whether we can transform this recovery into a foundation for sustained prosperity, industrial competitiveness, and inclusive growth,” he stated.

Addressing participants on the theme “Monetary Stability, Financial Sector Reform and Industrial Growth: Driving Ghana’s Economic Transformation from Vision to Action,” the Governor stressed that economic transformation requires decisive leadership, policy coordination, technological innovation, and public confidence in state institutions.

“This transformation requires far more than conventional approaches. It demands bold and decisive leadership, coordinated policy actions, technological innovation, institutional resilience, and above all, public confidence in the institutions entrusted with managing the economy,” he said.

He added “Within these challenges lies a unique opportunity to move beyond aspiration and translate our national vision into practical action and measurable outcomes that improve livelihoods, strengthen businesses, and restore confidence across the economy."
