The unpredictability of Ghana\u2019s economy serves as a nightmare for businesses, Economist Dr Ishmael Yamson, has said.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dr Yamson explains that businesses need a predictable economy to be able to run their operations effectively but the prevailing circumstances in Ghana currently do not create room for businesses to plan properly.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis period is the most difficult time that Ghanaian businesses have faced. You need a predictable economy, but we currently have a completely unpredictable economy.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe most difficult aspect is that there doesn\u2019t seem to be a real effort from the government or anyone else to change direction, and I can\u2019t see anything indicating that the economy is improving,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Dr Yamson further observed that businesses are reeling under harsh circumstances..<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you are a businessman in this economy today, you probably sleep with nightmares. You wake up the next morning not knowing what will hit you next, and it\u2019s been especially tough for manufacturers.<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving spent 30 years with the multinational company Unilever, I can really sense their frustrations in the current crisis. This is because you don\u2019t have control over your costs, absolutely no control.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll your costs are determined by factors outside your control as a business. If anybody asks me what keeps me awake at night, I will tell you it is the Ghanaian economy,\u201d he told Joy FM.<\/p>\n
