Ghana Cedi Appreciates To GHS 12.35 Per Dollar On Forex Market

According to currency market data published on Friday, November 13, 2026, by Isaac Donkor Distinguished on ModernGhana, the Ghanaian Cedi recorded fresh gains against the US dollar across domestic trading desks. Retail forex bureaus in Accra quoted the US dollar at a selling rate of GHS 12.35 on Friday morning, reflecting a slight appreciation compared to Thursday’s closing figures.

On the Bank of Ghana interbank foreign exchange market, the local currency traded even stronger at GHS 11.72 against the dollar. Currency dealers noted steady foreign exchange liquidity following the presentation of the 2027 national budget in Parliament earlier this week.

Separately, national front-page reports on Friday confirmed that the Bank of Ghana has introduced newly designed Ghana Cedi Heritage Bank Notes to commemorate national heritage. Economists in Accra continue to monitor retail transport and food prices closely as official inflation stands at 5.2 percent.

Meanwhile, commercial banks and licensed forex operators across Greater Accra and Kumasi confirmed that daily dollar allocation windows remain open for verified importers and corporate clients. Financial market analysts will track Friday afternoon’s closing interbank rates to measure weekly currency stability.
