The desk brief
On October 13, 2026 the Bank of Ghana published formal guidelines to govern allocation of foreign exchange through interbank FX forward auctions, creating a new framework for forward FX access, hedging and cedi management in Ghana's interbank market.
The guidelines change the institutional mechanism for allocating forward FX in Ghana, which could affect sovereign external-liquidity signalling and access to hedging for local banks and corporates. Ghana Eurobond spreads may react to implementation clarity and actual auction volumes, rather than the mere publication of rules. Monitor liquidity and participation to assess market transmission.
