Government To Issue Second Eurobond To Structure National Debt

Government will soon issue a second Eurobond to restructure the national debt in order to reduce the interest burden on the budget and enable it to finance critical infrastructure projects. Government will therefore take cognizance of the major problem of exchange risks in these transactions and examine cheaper options for the financing of infrastructure. Vice President, Paa Kwesi Amissah-Arthur said this in a remark at the launch of the IMF African Regional Economic outlook for Sub-Saharan African in Accra.
