Fitch Solutions Maintains Ghana’s 2025 Growth Forecast at 4.2% on Strong Gold Outlook

Fitch Solutions has reaffirmed its projection that Ghana’s economy will grow by 4.2% in 2025, underpinned by robust gold prices expected to shield the country from the adverse effects of global trade tensions and slowing international demand.

The UK-based research and analytics firm’s forecast marginally surpasses those of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank, which project GDP growth at 4.0% and 3.9% respectively.

In its latest report, Fitch Solutions noted that elevated gold prices would provide a crucial buffer for Ghana’s external and fiscal positions by bolstering foreign exchange reserves and strengthening government revenues. The windfall is also expected to help stabilise the cedi amid ongoing currency pressures in emerging markets.

“Ghana’s dependence on gold and crude oil exports renders it relatively insulated from the escalating tariff regime emanating from the United States,” the report stated, highlighting that key Ghanaian exports are not directly targeted by protectionist measures enacted by the Trump administration.

The report further observed that Ghana’s exposure to the US market remains limited, with exports to the United States accounting for just 4% to 5% of total outbound trade. By contrast, the country’s export dynamics are more significantly shaped by its commercial ties with China, Switzerland, and the Netherlands.

Despite acknowledging the downside risks associated with a potential global economic slowdown, Fitch Solutions believes the macroeconomic benefits of high gold prices—alongside prudent central bank interventions—will be instrumental in maintaining exchange rate stability and investor confidence in 2025.
