The Government of Ghana has fully settled a US$700 million Eurobond obligation ahead of schedule, marking another significant step in its efforts to strengthen public debt management and restore investor confidence.
According to the Ministry of Finance, the payment was completed on Thursday, July 2, 2026, under the country’s Eurobond Debt Exchange Programme. The settlement comprised US$525.2 million in principal repayments and US$174.8 million in interest payments, bringing Ghana’s total payments to Eurobond holders since January 2025 to US$2.1 billion.
The ministry explained that the repayment was made through the government’s planned financing arrangements without placing undue pressure on the country’s foreign exchange reserves. Officials say the early settlement reflects the government’s commitment to prudent debt management while supporting Ghana’s broader economic recovery agenda.
The Ministry of Finance noted that meeting the obligation ahead of schedule will help reduce Ghana’s outstanding Eurobond debt, strengthen investor confidence and reinforce the country’s macroeconomic stability. The government believes the move demonstrates its determination to honour its financial commitments while maintaining fiscal discipline.
Since completing its external debt restructuring, Ghana has continued to implement reforms aimed at restoring economic stability and rebuilding confidence among international investors. The latest repayment is expected to further support those efforts as the country works towards sustainable economic growth.
The Ministry also reaffirmed its commitment to sound public financial management and pledged to continue servicing the country’s debt obligations on time. It expressed appreciation to Ghanaians for their patience, support and confidence as the government pursues policies aimed at strengthening the economy and ensuring long-term fiscal sustainability.
