His full tweet of May 19 read: \u201cBank of Ghana informs me that the first tranche of $600 million of Ghana\u2019s low interest $3billion ECF facility has been received. These funds will be used for BOP & budget support and will also help stabilise the FX rate & trigger a cascading effect on inflation.\u201d<\/p>\n

The facility was approved by the IMF Board this week after major creditors (China and the Paris Club) gave financing reassurances.<\/p>\n

Subsequent releases will be based on Ghana\u2019s adherence to laid down processes agreed with the Fund, as well as the implementation of strict regulations back home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
