Despite well-anchored expectations from stronger FDIs [Foreign Direct Investments] and the S&#038;P credit upgrade, we believe a measured reduction in BoG [Bank of Ghana] interventions to support export competitiveness and protect local producers may temper further cedi gains in the near term\u201d, it added.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the local currency began this week going for GH\u00a211.95 in the retail market. On the interbank market, the cedi is selling at GH\u00a210.92.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n        <div class=\"booster-block booster-reactions-block\">\n            <div class=\"twp-reactions-icons\">\n
