IMF advices Ghana to contain debt-vulnerability risks

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) in its April 2023 Global Financial Stability Report, has recently advised countries such as Ghana and other developing and frontier economies to enhance their efforts to contain the risks associated with their high debt vulnerabilities. This advice comes amidst concerns regarding the sustainability of debt levels in many countries and the potential for economic instability if these debts are not managed effectively.

The IMF has recommended that these countries focus on enacting credible medium-term fiscal consolidation plans, which could help to contain borrowing costs and alleviate debt sustainability concerns. Such plans may include measures to increase revenue, reduce government spending, and improve public financial management.

The importance of credible fiscal consolidation plans cannot be overstated. These plans are essential for reducing borrowing costs and ensuring that debt levels are sustainable over the medium to long term. Moreover, they can provide a much-needed signal of the government’s commitment to fiscal discipline and responsible debt management, which can boost investor confidence and help to attract much-needed investment into these countries.

For countries that are already near debt distress, the IMF has urged bilateral and private sector creditors to coordinate on preemptive restructuring, using the G20 Common Framework where applicable. This approach can help to prevent default and ensure a more orderly resolution of debt problems, which can help to minimize the economic and social costs of debt distress and support sustainable economic growth.

The importance of coordination between creditors cannot be overstated. Without coordination, there is a risk that different creditors may pursue different strategies, which could lead to a disorderly and costly resolution of debt problems. By working together, creditors can ensure that their actions are aligned and that the best possible outcome is achieved for all parties involved.

It is important to note that the IMF’s advice is not just relevant to developing and frontier economies. Even developed economies can be vulnerable to high levels of debt, and credible fiscal consolidation plans are essential for maintaining debt sustainability and ensuring long-term economic stability.
