Inflation will continue to ease over the short-term ending 2024 at 20.8%, Fitch Solutions has disclosed in its Ghana Inflation 2024 Consumer Outlook.

At the same time, food prices will continue to decline. Here is more in this report.

According to the UK-based firm, inflation will average 22.1% in 2024.

Inflation fell to 20.9% in July 2024, from the peak of 54.1% in December 2022.

“Into 2025, inflation will continue on a downtrend, averaging 16.2% year-0n-year. Although inflationary pressures are easing, they remain higher than what consumers were used to pre-pandemic, when inflation in Ghana averaged 12.4% year-on-year over 2015-2019. This highlights how consumers will continue to face inflationary pressures in the short term”, Fitch Solutions stated.
