Cedi@60: BoG sees cedi as symbol of resilience and economic rebirth
On October 28, 2025, the Central Bank launched the Cedi@60 initiative, kicking off a year-long series of national events to reflect on the currency’s historic journey and its pivotal role in Ghana’s economic independence.
According to the BoG, the Cedi@60 milestone is not only a reflection on history but also an opportunity to rekindle public confidence in the national currency as a pillar of stability and national identity.
The event concluded with music, lunch, and lots of smiles, celebrating education, national pride, and Ghana’s rich monetary heritage.
