This will make it extremely difficult for Ghana to source international funds because international investors take such ratings seriously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, even investors will dare lend money to Ghana, either they will do it on the condition of cut-throat collateral or at high interest rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Consequently, Moody\u2019s downgrade of Ghana\u2019s debt rating is the rating agency\u2019s simple way of saying that if loans are given to Ghana without collateral, the country will very likely not be able to pay back with its debt to GDP ratio around 80%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This puts Ghana in a precarious position for global vulture economies like China to advance funds to the country and seize its strategic assets and infrastructures like ports, airports, and other important sovereign installations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Moodys-Downgrades-Ghana-Bonds-over-Liquidity-Debt-Challenges-696x392-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4610\" srcset=\"https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Moodys-Downgrades-Ghana-Bonds-over-Liquidity-Debt-Challenges-696x392-1.jpg 696w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Moodys-Downgrades-Ghana-Bonds-over-Liquidity-Debt-Challenges-696x392-1-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Moodys-Downgrades-Ghana-Bonds-over-Liquidity-Debt-Challenges-696x392-1-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">China is noted for such a move in Africa, having set up countries like Uganda, Kenya, etc. in a debt trap that ultimately handed those country\u2019s important infrastructure to China.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe downgrade to Caa1 reflects the increasingly difficult task the government faces addressing its intertwined liquidity and debt challenges. Weak revenue generation constrains the government\u2019s budget flexibility and tight funding conditions on international markets have forced the government to rely on costly debt with a shorter maturity,\u201d Moody\u2019s explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The development is an indictment on the Akufo-Addo government which has messed up the country\u2019s finances mainly with reckless borrowing that has ballooned the country\u2019s debt so high that it is hard to see how it can service the debt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Moody\u2019s estimates that interest payments will absorb more than half the government\u2019s revenue over the foreseeable future, which is exceptionally high compared to peers at all rating levels. As a remedy, the government has proposed sharp fiscal consolidation and a switch to borrowings from external partners on more favourable terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHowever, the strategy comes with sizeable implementation risks, especially in a still-fragile post-pandemic environment and while international market creditors price in very wide risk premia. While Ghana\u2019s external buffers and moderate external debt amortization schedule in the next few years afford the government a window of opportunity to deliver on its strategy, balance of payments pressures will build up the longer government\u2019s large financing requirements have to rely on domestic sources,\u201d Moody\u2019s said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Moody\u2019s downgrade is coming barely a month after another rating agency, Fitch had downgraded Ghana\u2019s Long-Term Foreign-Currency Issuer Default Rating (IDR) to \u2018B-\u2018 from \u2018B\u2019 with negative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Explaining the rationale for the ratings, Moody\u2019s said, it projects that \u201cGhana\u2019s debt ratios will continue to deteriorate in the next few years with extremely weak debt affordability significantly constraining policymaking. Moody\u2019s estimates that government debt ended 2021 at 80% of GDP while interest payments alone consumed half of the government revenue that year (positioning Ghana with the second-largest ratio among Moody\u2019s rated sovereigns).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cGiven Ghana\u2019s still low average income at about $6000 per capita at Purchasing Power Parity and demands on social spending, very weak debt affordability constrains the government\u2019s scope of policy action, intensifying the policy trade-off between servicing debts and delivering services to the Ghanaian population. Moody\u2019s projects that the government will improve its primary balance by a cumulative 3% of GDP over 2022-24,\u201d Moody\u2019s stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Source:
