South Africa has retained its position as Africa’s best-performing country in the 2026 ranking published by Jeune Afrique and The Africa Report, with Ghana placing 8th in a list that seeks to measure national performance beyond economic size.
The ranking, released in Paris on June 4, 2026, assesses African countries across three broad dimensions: governance, influence and innovation. Ghana’s 8th position in the rankings reflects its continued relevance in West Africa’s economic and institutional landscape, particularly as the country competes with Côte d’Ivoire for influence, investment and regional leadership.
