Finance Minister Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson is set to present the 2026 Budget Statement and Economic Policy to Parliament today, Thursday, November 13, 2025. The presentation will outline the government’s fiscal framework, policy priorities, and expenditure plans for the coming year.
This year’s budget is considered one of the most crucial in recent times, as Ghana prepares to exit the International Monetary Fund (IMF) programme by May 2026. It is expected to unveil the government’s strategy for transitioning from IMF supervision to a homegrown economic growth model.
Economists, analysts, and business leaders are closely watching for details on post-IMF reforms, particularly in areas such as debt management, public spending, and private sector growth.
Dr. Forson has hinted that the 2026 budget will focus on job creation, productivity, and sustainable economic expansion, with key investments targeted at agriculture, manufacturing, and digital innovation.
The document will also include measures aimed at consolidating macroeconomic stability, boosting domestic revenue generation, and strengthening social protection programmes to support vulnerable groups.
