Business News of Monday, 23 February 2026Source: GNAThe Centre for Democratic Development (CDD-Ghana) has commended improvements in macroeconomic conditions during the first year of Mahama’s Administration, describing them as “exceptional”. A report issued by the Centre, however, identified implementation challenges in governance, anti-corruption, and environmental management as some of the challenges. The report noted that while disposable incomes improved in major cities such as Accra and Kumasi, regional disparities persisted, with northern areas experiencing slower price reductions due to logistical constraints. On debt and inflation, it said although government focused on addressing high inflation and debt distress, sustainability through the 2027 debt repayment cycle would be critical. On governance, the report noted that the administration assumed office amid low public trust, with 28 per cent of citizens expressing confidence in the presidency at the beginning of 2025.
