The Ghana Statistical Service released preliminary data showing a 4.2% year-on-year growth in GDP for Q3 2025, surpassing analyst forecasts of 3.8%.

The growth was driven primarily by strong performance in the agricultural, manufacturing, and services sectors. The Minister of Finance attributed the positive outcome to government policies supporting business development and infrastructure investment.

Notably, exports of cocoa and gold contributed significantly to the figures. However, economists caution that inflation remains a concern and urged continued vigilance.

The data provides a cautiously optimistic outlook for the full-year economic performance.
