The Ghana cedi has appreciated by 21.0% against the US dollar in nine months of 2025.<\/p>\n

However, the local currency lost about 19% in value between late July 2025 and September 2025, after recording 40.5% appreciation as of July 2025.<\/p>\n

According to the Bank of Ghana\u2019s September 2025 Summary of Economic and Financial Data, the cedi traded at GH\u00a212.15 to one US dollar on the interbank market.<\/p>\n

In May 2025, the local currency gained 43% in value to the American greenback since January 1, 2025.<\/p>\n

Similarly, the cedi appreciated by 42.6% against dollar in June 2025 and 40.5% in July 2025.<\/p>\n

It also appreciated by 6.9% to the euro on the interbank market in September, going for GH\u00a214.23. However, it lost a huge value between July and September 2025.<\/p>\n

For the pound, the cedi also gained 11.8% in value. It consequently sold at GH\u00a214.23 on the interbank market.<\/p>\n

Cedi Remains One of Best-Performing Currencies<\/strong><\/p>\n

Despite the recent setback, the Bank of Ghana Governor, Dr Johnson Asiama, said the cedi remains one of the best-performing currencies in the world, highlighting, the usual seasonal trade pressures and a recent dip in remittance inflows.<\/p>\n

Opening the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting on Monday, September 15, 2025, Dr Asiama acknowledged that remittances have not been as robust as in previous years.<\/p>\n

Cedi Near Term Outlook<\/strong><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, analysts expect the cedi to record a modest stability as positive sentiment builds on the back of the World Bank\u2019s US$360 million concessional loan.<\/p>\n

This will come amid a stronger forex support further anchoring this outlook.<\/p>\n

However, the upcoming Monetary Policy Committee decisions, particularly a cautious US rate cut to address softening labour data, will be pivotal in shaping US dollar Ghana cedi sentiments.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
