Ghana – one of the world’s fastest growing economies

Under the leadership of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, Ghana has re-emerged as an African economic champion. In 2019, its gross domestic product rose by over 7%. “We have also become one of the most advanced countries for foreign direct investment (FDI) in West Africa and, by extension, the whole African continent,” says Minister for Information Kojo Oppong Nkrumah.

“Over 60 years ago, Ghana was the first sub-Saharan African country to break the glass ceiling: to become independent and build a strong African democracy. Today, as Africa champions the next level of self-reliance, Ghana is leading the charge in what we call the “Beyond Aid”.”
