Finance Minister Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson has welcomed Ghana’s latest inflation data, describing the continued decline as clear evidence that government reforms are taking hold and the economy is on a firmer path to stability.
Ghana’s inflation rate fell to 6.3 percent in November 2025, the lowest level since the 2021 rebasing and the eleventh consecutive month of decline.
Reacting to the new figures, Dr. Forson said the numbers show that the administration’s economic recovery measures are beginning to yield visible results, particularly in easing the burden on consumers.
“I am especially delighted by the sharp fall in food inflation, down from 9.5 percent in October to 6.6 percent in November,” he said. “This is a significant source of relief for households across the country.”
The Minister added that the improvement extends beyond food commodities.
“It is not just food. Price pressures are easing across the board,” he noted, pointing to broad adjustments in both locally produced and imported goods.
The Ghana Statistical Service reported that local inflation dropped from 8.0 percent to 6.8 percent, while imported inflation fell more steeply, from 7.8 percent to 5.0 percent.
Calling the development a strong signal of ongoing recovery, Dr. Forson described the downward trajectory as “real, measurable progress.”
Economic analysts say the sustained decline could help reinforce macroeconomic stability, boost business confidence, and strengthen consumer purchasing power as the economy continues its gradual rebound.
