Minister for Finance, Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, has asserted that Ghana is firmly on the path to debt sustainability.

According to the Finance Minister, this marks a critical turning point as the country pivots from economic stabilisation to a growth-focused recovery.

Ato Forson made this known after high-level talks with the World Bank Regional Vice President for Western and Central Africa, Ousmane Diagana, on the sidelines of the IMF-World Bank Spring Meetings in Washington, D.C., in a move that signals renewed confidence from development partners.

“Ghana has stabilised its economy and is firmly on the path to debt sustainability. We are now shifting focus from stabilisation to growth,” he stated.

The renewed engagement will focus on four priority areas expected to drive jobs and productivity; commercial agriculture and agribusiness, energy development with emphasis on gas-to-power and gas-to-fertiliser, education and human capital development, as well as infrastructure to ease the movement of goods.

The Minister stressed that the government will maintain fiscal discipline even as it accelerates growth-focused investments.

“We remain committed to disciplined fiscal management while protecting vulnerable populations,” he added.

He also welcomed the World Bank’s continued support, noting that the partnership will be critical as Ghana consolidates recent gains and transitions into a more resilient and inclusive growth phase.
