Gov’t announces timely settlement of US$709m eurobond

The Government of Ghana has successfully settled a US$709 million Eurobond obligation ahead of its maturity date, the Ministry of Finance has announced, marking another major step in the country’s economic recovery and debt management programme.

The payment, which was made on December 30, 2025, brings Ghana’s total Eurobond payments for the year to approximately US$1.4 billion, in line with commitments outlined in the country’s Eurobond restructuring memorandum.

In a press release issued by the Ministry’s Public Relations Unit, the Ministry stated that the 2025 payments included two tranches of US$349.52 million each and the latest US$709 million settlement.

According to the Ministry, the early settlement demonstrates Ghana’s renewed fiscal discipline and commitment to meeting its debt obligations.

“The timely settlement of this Eurobond obligation reaffirms Ghana’s credibility as a sovereign borrower and underscores the Government’s commitment to restoring investor confidence through prudent, predictable and disciplined debt management practices,” the statement said.

The Ministry noted that government will build on the progress made by intensifying efforts in domestic revenue mobilisation, public financial management and public debt sustainability.

“Fiscal buffers will continue to be strengthened to support debt service obligations while safeguarding sustainable national development,” the release added.

Government also expressed appreciation to Ghanaians for their support during the economic recovery process, acknowledging the role of public cooperation in achieving the gains recorded in 2025.

“We thank the good people of Ghana for their support and understanding, which have been vital to the country’s economic recovery,” the Ministry stated.

Looking ahead, the Ministry appealed for continued public forbearance as further economic reforms are rolled out in the coming year to consolidate the gains made.

“Government appeals for continued cooperation as additional reforms are implemented in the coming year to deepen the progress achieved in 2025,” the statement said.
