CPI

Ghana averaged 45.8 under Mahama but dropped to 42 under Akufo-Addo in the CPI ranking where zero equates to "highly corrupt" and 100 is "very clean".

CPI rose by 1.7% in the year to September 2024, down from 2.2% in the 12 months to August.

The September CPI figure of 1.7% decides how much many benefit payments will go up in April 2025.

Although the headline CPI figure of 1.7% is below the 2% target, the Bank also considers other measures, external, such as "core inflation" when deciding how to change rates.

The main inflation measure, CPI, rose slightly to 2.2% in the year to July and remained at that level in August.
