Program implementation in Ghana remains broadly satisfactory, but the economic outlook remains difficult and fiscal challenges are mounting. The growth outlook for 2016 and 2017 has weakened, mainly owing to disruptions in oil production, and non-oil economic activity is expected to remain subdued owing to continued fiscal consolidation and tight monetary policy. There was broad agreement with the authorities on the need to sustain a tight monetary stance given the still high inflation. The IMF staff recommends completion of the third review. 410 0$aIMF Staff Country Reports; Country Report ;$vNo. 2016/321 606 $aEconomic development$zGhana 606 $aBanks and Banking$2imf 606 $aExports and Imports$2imf 606 $aMacroeconomics$2imf 606 $aPublic Finance$2imf 606 $aIndustries: Financial Services$2imf 606 $aTaxation$2imf 606 $aInvestments: Energy$2imf 606 $aDebt$2imf 606 $aDebt Management$2imf 606 $aSovereign Debt$2imf 606 $aBanks$2imf 606 $aDepository Institutions$2imf 606 $aMicro Finance Institutions$2imf 606 $aMortgages$2imf 606 $aInternational Lending and Debt Problems$2imf 606 $aFiscal Policy$2imf 606 $aInvestment$2imf 606 $aCapital$2imf 606 $aIntangible Capital$2imf 606 $aCapacity$2imf 606 $aNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: General$2imf 606 $aTaxation, Subsidies, and Revenue: General$2imf 606 $aPublic finance & taxation$2imf 606 $aInternational economics$2imf 606 $aFinance$2imf 606 $aBanking$2imf 606 $aInvestment & securities$2imf 606 $aPublic debt$2imf 606 $aFiscal consolidation$2imf 606 $aExternal debt$2imf 606 $aDebt rescheduling$2imf 606 $aExpenditure$2imf 606 $aRevenue administration$2imf 606 $aOil, gas and mining taxes$2imf 606 $aTaxes$2imf 606 $aDebts, External$2imf 606 $aDebts, Public$2imf 606 $aFiscal policy$2imf 606 $aBanks and banking$2imf 606 $aLoans$2imf 606 $aExpenditures, Public$2imf 606 $aRevenue$2imf 607 $aGhana$xEconomic conditions 607 $aGhana$2imf 615 0$aEconomic development 615 7$aBanks and Banking 615 7$aExports and Imports 615 7$aMacroeconomics 615 7$aPublic Finance 615 7$aIndustries: Financial Services 615 7$aTaxation 615 7$aInvestments: Energy 615 7$aDebt 615 7$aDebt Management 615 7$aSovereign Debt 615 7$aBanks 615 7$aDepository Institutions 615 7$aMicro Finance Institutions 615 7$aMortgages 615 7$aInternational Lending and Debt Problems 615 7$aFiscal Policy 615 7$aInvestment 615 7$aCapital 615 7$aIntangible Capital 615 7$aCapacity 615 7$aNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: General 615 7$aTaxation, Subsidies, and Revenue: General 615 7$aPublic finance & taxation 615 7$aInternational economics 615 7$aFinance 615 7$aBanking 615 7$aInvestment & securities 615 7$aPublic debt 615 7$aFiscal consolidation 615 7$aExternal debt 615 7$aDebt rescheduling 615 7$aExpenditure 615 7$aRevenue administration 615 7$aOil, gas and mining taxes 615 7$aTaxes 615 7$aDebts, External 615 7$aDebts, Public 615 7$aFiscal policy 615 7$aBanks and banking 615 7$aLoans 615 7$aExpenditures, Public 615 7$aRevenue 676 $a330.9667 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910136707903321 996 $aGhana$9739385 997 $aUNINA
