President John Mahama has appointed Dr. Zakari Mumuni as the First Deputy Governor of the Bank of Ghana.
Dr. Mumuni, who has more than 20 years of experience in financial market development, macroeconomic policy research, and central banking, is anticipated to contribute knowledge and strategic perspective to Ghana’s monetary policy.
The Council of State has yet to confirm his nomination. He will be crucial in keeping the country’s financial sector stable in the face of persistent economic difficulties if he is accepted.
Dr. Mumuni is a member of the Bank of Ghana’s Monetary Policy Committee and the current Director of the Financial Markets Department.
He has held important positions during his career, such as Special Assistant to the Governor and Head of Modeling and Forecasting at the Research Department. He is an excellent candidate for the role due to his proficiency in monetary policy execution, debt sustainability analysis, and macroeconomic forecasting.
He holds an MPhil from the University of Ghana, a Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Nottingham, and numerous research publications on monetary policy and inflation targeting.
