24-Hour Secretariat meets with BoG officials
The 24-Hour Economy Secretariat has engaged the Bank of Ghana in a high-level meeting aimed at aligning the flagship policy with Ghana’s broader macroeconomic framework.
The meeting forms part of a series of consultations with key stakeholders as the programme moves into its operational phase.
Speaking during the engagement on February 13, 2026, the Presidential Advisor on the 24-Hour Economy Programme, Goosie Tanoh, expressed appreciation to the central bank for the engagement, stating that Ghana’s immediate focus must remain on consolidating macroeconomic stability.
He commended the Bank of Ghana for helping to stabilise the economy, citing improved treasury bill performance and declining inflation as signs of a strengthening economic foundation.
According to him, the 24-hour economy initiative is designed to build on these gains by providing targeted support at the enterprise level to stimulate production, exports, and job creation.

“Ghana’s immediate priority is to build a resilient economy anchored on macroeconomic stability,” he stated.
A major highlight of the discussions was the proposed Food Security and Price Stabilisation Fund, which is expected to help manage commodity price volatility, curb food inflation, and strengthen national food security in complement to existing monetary policy measures.
The meeting also explored collaboration between the Secretariat, commercial banks, and the central bank.
Proposals discussed included the development of a 24H+ credit policy and enterprise financing framework, coordinated credit appraisal systems, syndicated and direct lending opportunities, and balance-sheet support for eligible businesses operating under the 24-hour model.
