Bank of Ghana Releases Official Daily Exchange Rates for Tuesday, October 27, 2026

The Bank of Ghana has released the official exchange rates for Tuesday, 27 October 2026. The rates are the average interbank rates used by commercial banks. They reflect transactions at the close of business on Monday, 26 October 2026.

The US dollar is buying at ₵11.6442 and selling at ₵11.6558. The gap between the two rates is small. This shows a stable market for the currency.

The British pound is buying at ₵15.5403 and selling at ₵15.5570. The pound remains the strongest of the three currencies listed. Travellers and businesses dealing with the United Kingdom should take note of these figures.

The euro is buying at ₵13.0164 and selling at ₵13.0282. This rate is useful for traders who import goods from Europe. It is also helpful for Ghanaians who send or receive money from Eurozone countries.

Exchange rates affect the daily lives of many Ghanaians. Importers use them to plan the cost of goods from abroad. Exporters use them to estimate their earnings. Students, travellers and families who depend on foreign remittances also follow them closely.

The buying rate is the price at which a bank purchases foreign currency from a customer. The selling rate is the price at which a bank sells foreign currency to a customer. The selling rate is always slightly higher than the buying rate. This difference is how banks earn a margin on currency transactions.

The figures released by the Bank of Ghana are reference rates for interbank dealings. Individual banks and forex bureaus may charge slightly different rates to customers. People are therefore advised to confirm the rate with their bank or dealer before completing any transaction.

The Bank of Ghana publishes these rates every working day. They are available on its website, www.bog.gh, and on its social media pages under the handle @thebankofghana. Members of the public are encouraged to check these official sources regularly to stay informed about currency movements.
