On 25 July 2022, the Minister for Finance, Mr. Ken Ofori Atta, presented the much anticipated Mid-year Fiscal Policy Review of the Budget Statement and Economic Policy of the Government of Ghana for 2022 (“the Budget”) to Parliament. The heightened interest in this particular mid-year review was in the context of Ghana’s difficult post-pandemic recovery and the recent announcement by the Government of Ghana of its decision to commence engagement with the International Monetary Fund (“IMF”) to support Ghana’s economic recovery programme.
