The Bank of Ghana Monetary Policy Committee held the policy rate at 29.00% at its May 2025 meeting, maintaining its tight stance adopted since 2022. The Committee cited persistent core inflation (22.1% in May 2025) and exchange rate pressures as reasons for holding. The next MPC meeting is scheduled for August 2025.
Sources
Africa's financial markets produce data every day. The problem is not volume — it is structure, verification, and reach.
54 central banks publish monetary policy decisions. Finance ministries release budget data in Arabic, French, English, and Portuguese. Securities regulators file notices on fragmented portals. Kontinenta reads all of it so your team does not have to — and delivers what matters, sourced and structured, before your morning begins.
How Kontinenta works

Primary sources across 54 markets, monitored continuously
Kontinenta monitors the official publications of central banks, finance ministries, securities regulators, and national statistics offices — in English, French, Arabic, and Portuguese — across every recognised African country. No secondary aggregation; the primary document is always the source.
Every development interpreted in institutional context
Raw data and policy releases are structured into Kontinenta's consistent schema: what happened, what the primary source says, what the institutional context is, and what the implications are for banking, FX, capital markets, or regulatory posture. Analysis is layered onto the primary document, not substituted for it.
The Morning Briefing, published before markets open
Each morning, the day's intelligence is assembled into the Morning Briefing — filterable by region, country, and sector. Subscribers receive it at a consistent time each day, with every item tagged to its source. Briefings are archived and fully searchable.
Country profiles and verified answers, available on demand
Beyond the briefing, subscribers access structured country deep-dives and the AI-assisted research tool — both drawing from the same verified source registry. When a question requires a specific answer from a central bank circular or a regulatory notice, Kontinenta finds it and cites it.
Institutional subscription
Kontinenta is designed for teams — analysts, risk officers, economists, and research leads — who require African market intelligence as a professional standard, not a convenience.
