The United States and Ghana have signed a bilateral debt agreement to restructure the sovereign debt Accra owes to the Export-Import Bank of the United States (US Exim Bank).
The agreement, signed on May 6, 2026, forms part of Ghana’s broader debt restructuring programme, which the country has been pursuing following its sovereign default in 2022.
The US Mission in Accra, announcing the development, stressed that the timely servicing of American debt obligations remains a prerequisite for continued US economic engagement in Ghana.
It further urged Accra to make demonstrable progress in clearing outstanding arrears owed to US private sector companies and American higher education institutions operating in the country.
