President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has stated that the government has, over the course of the last two and a half years, succeeded in restoring fiscal discipline in the management of the economy, resulting in the macroeconomic indices pointing in the right direction.

According to him, the favourable macroeconomic situation prevailing in the country was a firm indication of his government’s commitment to the creation of a conducive business atmosphere needed for the private sector to flourish.

"We have restored fiscal discipline, our macroeconomic indices are pointing in the right direction, we have implemented tax cuts and incentives to stimulate the rapid growth of the private sector and we are projected, according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), to be the fastest-growing economy in the world this year," he said.
