Ghana’s economic growth in 2026 will remain strong, underpinned primarily by resilient household demand despite a slowdown in economic activities in quarter three of 2025.
According to Fitch Solutions, domestic demand will remain strong in the coming quarters, supported by muted inflation and easing interest rates alongside a more expansionary fiscal stance.
“We project economic momentum in Ghana to remain robust, with real GDP [Gross Domestic Product] growth edging up from 5.8% in 2025 to 5.9% in 2026.
The latest data from Ghana Statistical Service shows that economic activity softened slightly in Q3 [quarter 3], as growth slowed to 5.5% year-on-year from 6.5% in Q2 [quarter 2].
This was largely due to weaker performance in the industrial sector, where growth fell from 2.3% in Q2 to just 0.8% in Q3, caused by a deeper contraction in mining and quarrying and easing construction activity.
