The cedi continues to depreciate against major trading currencies such as the US dollar. <\/p>\n

The cedi, which has been under pressure throughout the year, recorded relative stability in July this year, while inflationary pressures continued declining. <\/p>\n

However, checks by GhanaWeb Business as of October 29, 2024, at 7:25 AM show that the cedi is trading at GH\u00a216.85 to the dollar, while the pound is trading at GH\u00a221.75 at some major forex bureaus across the country. <\/p>\n

Additionally, the Euro is trading at GH\u00a218.20 on the retail market. <\/p>\n

The decline of the cedi against major trading currencies will further worsen the woes of the Ghanaian economy amidst the pricing behaviour of businesses.<\/p>\n

According to Bloomberg, the cedi has traded almost 1% lower against the dollar in the past month, after declining in value by almost 24% this year.<\/p>\n
