reuters.com/world/africa/ghana-deal-with-bondholders-a-matter-time-says-imf-official-2024-04-19/
Quick Glance: Ghana's Bondholder Agreement on the Horizon, IMF Official Says
- Ghana reaching a restructuring deal with holders of its international bonds is seen by an IMF official as a matter of time rather than insurmountable obstacles.
- The country, relying on IMF support, has not yet agreed on a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with its official bilateral creditors for a restructuring deal.
- Ghana's government revealed that they were unable to reach a viable restructuring agreement with two groups of around $13 billion in foreign bondholders and will continue negotiations until a deal aligns with the IMF's debt sustainability targets.
- The IMF announced that a new staff-level agreement for the second review of its $3 billion loan program with Ghana would release a $360 million tranche once the country and its official bilateral creditors finalize an MoU in line with the program.

reuters.com/markets/ghana-fails-reach-debt-deal-with-bondholders-2024-04-15/
Quick Glance: Ghana Fails to Reach Debt Agreement with Bondholders
- Ghana was unable to reach an agreement with a group of international bondholders to restructure $13 billion in debt. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the bondholder group rejected parts of the proposed plan.
- The IMF argued that the agreement was not aligned with a debt analysis that determines a country's capacity for debt. The bondholder group, among other things, declined the option to maintain the original value of the bond with a longer term and lower interest rate.
- In December 2022, Ghana, the world's second-largest cocoa producer, defaulted on a majority of its $30 billion external debt, following a surge in debt costs and inflation as it was cut off from international markets.
- The failure of the debt agreement represents a setback for Ghana's efforts to recover from default and economic crisis.
