The Ghanaian cedi has posted strong gains against major trading currencies, appreciating sharply on the interbank market as the year draws to a close.
Figures from the Bank of Ghana show that the cedi was trading at GH¢10.65 to the US dollar on Tuesday, 30 December 2025, with just two days left in the year. This represents one of the currency’s strongest showings in recent weeks and underscores renewed stability in the foreign exchange market.
The latest performance follows a significant rally on Monday, 29 December 2025, when the cedi strengthened from GH¢11.10 to the dollar, signalling growing confidence in the local currency toward the end of the year.
Analysts say the cedi’s appreciation could help ease the cost of imports, including food items, clothing, electronics and household goods, which typically see increased demand during the Christmas and New Year period.
A firmer currency is also expected to provide some relief on fuel prices, as petroleum products are imported and priced in dollars. This could help moderate transportation costs and reduce operating expenses for businesses.
Overall, the cedi’s gains during the festive season are likely to bolster consumer purchasing power and offer some respite to households and businesses as 2025 comes to an end.
