Deloitte has revealed in its March 2026 Inflation Update that upside risks remain despite ease in inflation.
According to the professional services firm, the International Monetary Fund’s 2026 average forecast of 9.9% suggests price pressures could re-emerge later in the year from foreign exchange pass-through effect, higher global commodity prices, or administered price adjustments.
It however stated that the fiscal consolidation is expected to support price stability, as the government targets a primary surplus of about 1.5% of GDP in 2026.
This reinforces disinflation, stabilising the cedi, and limiting inflationary financing pressures.
