JoyNews to host special coverage on Bank of Ghana's Policy Rate decision today
Joy News is set to air a special edition of its flagship economics programme Beyond the Numbers today, Wednesday, March 18, 2026, as the Bank of Ghana’s Monetary Policy Committee prepares to announce its latest policy rate decision. The special coverage is scheduled for 1:00 PM.
The special coverage will bring together four analysts - George Wiafe, Isaac Kofi Agyei, Winston Tackie, and Caleb Ziblim - to dissect what the central bank decides and what it means for Ghanaians still grappling with high borrowing costs and rising fuel prices. The topic is billed as “Policy Rate: Bank of Ghana Decides.” The MPC has been on an easing cycle since mid-2025, cutting the rate from 28 per cent to its current level of 15.5 per cent - a cumulative reduction of 1,250 basis points. Business groups have called for reductions of up to 300 basis points at this sitting.
The 1:00 PM broadcast is a must-watch for anyone tracking Ghana’s economic trajectory. The programme airs on Joy News, available on GOtv Channel 125 and DStv Channel 421, and can also be streamed online via the network’s digital platforms.
