Ghana has successfully settled its latest Eurobond debt service obligation, amounting to US$349.52 million, bringing the country fully up to date on all scheduled Eurobond payments for 2025.
Finance Minister Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson announced the payment on Thursday, July 3, 2025, via his official Facebook page.
He disclosed that the payment, made through the Bank of Ghana, follows an earlier Eurobond debt service payment of US\$349.52 million in January this year.
“The Ministry of Finance wishes to officially inform the public that the Government of Ghana has, through the Bank of Ghana, successfully effected a payment of US$349,523,674.56 in respect of Eurobond debt service obligations today, thursday, 3rd July 2025.”
The latest payment forms part of Ghana’s efforts to maintain macroeconomic stability and demonstrate a strong commitment to prudent debt management following the country’s Eurobond debt restructuring concluded in October 2024.
Since the restructuring agreement, Ghana has made cumulative Eurobond payments of US$1.17 billion, broken down as follows:
- US\$475.60 million paid in October 2024, covering the first post-restructuring debt service obligations.
- US\$349.52 million paid in January 2025.
- US\$349.52 million paid in July 2025.
With these payments, Ghana has met all scheduled Eurobond debt service obligations for the year 2025.
Dr. Forson expressed optimism that the timely settlement will positively impact Ghana’s credit ratings, boost investor confidence, and support foreign exchange market stability, as the payments have been factored into the Bank of Ghana’s reserves and liquidity management strategy.
Looking ahead, the Minister noted that a total of US\$1.4 billion in Eurobond debt service is scheduled for 2026, reaffirming the government’s commitment to engaging constructively with external creditors and maintaining fiscal discipline.
