IMF technical mission engages Ghana on implementing governance reforms
An International Monetary Fund (IMF) Technical Assistance mission has concluded a four-day visit to Accra, aimed at supporting Ghana’s efforts to implement key governance reforms recommended in the IMF’s Governance Diagnostic Report.
The mission, led by Ms. Tina Burjaliani and comprising Mr. Gomiluk Otokwala and Ms. Nusula Nassuna, was undertaken at the request of the Ghanaian authorities and ran from December 8 to 11, 2025.
The Governance Diagnostic Report for Ghana, published on November 3, 2025, provides an in-depth assessment of governance and corruption vulnerabilities in the country.
It outlines priority reforms to strengthen public financial management, revenue administration, property rights, public-sector integrity, as well as transparency and accountability mechanisms across state institutions.
During the visit, the IMF team focused on assisting the authorities as they began implementing actions to address the report’s key recommendations.
Discussions also explored ways to coordinate technical and financial assistance among development partners to sustain reform momentum.
The mission held meetings with senior government officials, civil society organisations, and international development partners.
These engagements centred on prioritising follow-up actions, identifying implementation arrangements, and leveraging external support to advance the governance reform agenda.
The IMF indicated that it will continue to work closely with the Ghanaian authorities and development partners in the months ahead, including within the framework of the ongoing Extended Credit Facility programme, to support the effective implementation of the Governance Diagnostic recommendations.
The Fund expressed appreciation to the Ghanaian authorities and stakeholders for their cooperation, hospitality, and the open and constructive dialogue throughout the mission.
