Dr Patrick Asuming, a lecturer in Finance and Economics at the University of Ghana, has labelled Ghana’s recent programme with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) as the most costly to ordinary Ghanaians.

He expressed concerns over the sacrifices the programme imposed on Ghanaians, describing them as unbearable and problematic.

Participating in a panel discussion at the Graphic Business/Stanbic Bank Breakfast Meeting on Tuesday, November 21, Dr Asuming urged the government to ensure that the country does not return to the Bretton Woods Institution any time soon.

He specifically pointed out that conditionalities like the Domestic Debt Exchange (DDEP) have brought significant hardships to businesses and households.

“This is the most costly IMF programme for the ordinary Ghanaian by way of the nature and the level of sacrifices that we have been asked to make for the programme to come into being, for both ordinary Ghanaian households and businesses. A big part of the domestic debt exchange and the challenges and problems it has brought on to us, our senior citizens.”

Ghana is presently seeking a $3 billion balance of payment support from the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
