    Bank Of Ghana Delays Launch Of E-Cedi Project Due To Economic Challenges

    The Bank of Ghana (BOG) has stated the launch of the E-Cedi project has been delayed due to the economic challenges faced in 2022.

    The BoG Governor Dr. Ernest Addison stated that although significant progress has been made in the development of the e-Cedi, the BOG has had to delay the launch due to high inflation rates and loss of currency value that occurred in 2022.

    In 2022, we had a very major dislocation of the economy,” he said at a press briefing on Monday.

    “That is not the context in which you want to launch a digital currency. So, we had to slow down the process and refocus our efforts on the macro environment, trying to bring inflation down. At a certain point, we will go back to the e-Cedi project and decide on the launch date,” he added.
