Ghana has settled a $700 million Eurobond ahead of its scheduled maturity, marking another step in the West African nation's efforts to rebuild credibility in international capital markets.
The early repayment brings the total amount of Eurobond principal returned by the government to $2.1 billion since the start of 2025, according to reports from Nairametrics.
The cumulative $2.1 billion in repayments represents a significant portion of the country's outstanding external debt, potentially easing pressure on the cedi and reducing rollover risk.
