The Government of Ghana has announced the successful settlement of its $700 million Eurobond debt, completing the payment ahead of schedule in a move aimed at reinforcing the country’s economic stability and boosting investor confidence.
According to Ghana’s Ministry of Finance, the payment was executed on July 2, 2026, and included $525.2 million in principal repayments and $174.8 million in interest payments.
The ministry disclosed that the latest transaction brings Ghana’s total repayments to Eurobond holders to $2.1 billion since January 2025, in line with the country’s Eurobond Debt Exchange Programme.
Officials explained that the repayment was carried out through a carefully planned financing strategy, ensuring that the country’s foreign exchange reserves were not placed under unnecessary pressure.
The government described the early settlement as a significant milestone that reduces Ghana’s outstanding external debt, strengthens investor confidence, and reflects its commitment to responsible debt management and long-term macroeconomic stability.
The Ministry of Finance also reaffirmed its commitment to maintaining sound public financial management and ensuring the timely servicing of all future debt obligations.
Expressing gratitude to the public, the ministry thanked the people of Ghana for their continued patience, trust, and support as the government implements policies aimed at restoring economic growth and fiscal sustainability.
