The World Bank has released $360 million to Ghana under its International Development Association (IDA) facility to support the country’s ongoing economic recovery efforts. The funds, which fall under the Second Resilient Recovery Development Policy Financing operation, are aimed at restoring macroeconomic stability, accelerating growth, and building resilience against future shocks.
The disbursement, confirmed on Thursday, September 11, 2025, follows approval by the World Bank Board in June and ratification by Ghana’s Parliament in July. According to the Bank, the package supports reforms in four key areas: fiscal and monetary discipline to stabilize the economy, private sector growth to create sustainable jobs, accountability in the energy sector, and stronger social protection and climate resilience.
Officials say the $360 million forms part of the Bank’s broader engagement with Ghana, combining crisis response with long-term development support. Analysts note that the timing is crucial, as Ghana continues implementing reforms under its IMF program. The World Bank emphasized that sustaining reform momentum, ensuring transparency, and strengthening institutions will be critical to safeguarding the country’s recovery and future stability.
