Ghana’s consumer price inflation cooled in February 2026, with the year-over-year Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising 3.30%, down from 3.80% in January 2026. The data, updated on 4 March 2026, shows a continued moderation in price pressures when comparing each month to the same period a year earlier.
The February reading indicates that the pace of annual price increases has slowed, suggesting some relief for consumers and potentially easing pressure on policymakers monitoring inflation dynamics. The previous January figure of 3.80% year-over-year had already marked a relatively moderate inflation environment, and the latest decline reinforces that trend.
The comparison is based on a year-over-year framework, meaning both the current and previous indicators reflect how prices in each respective month—February and January 2026—changed relative to the same months in the prior year. This method highlights the continuing deceleration in Ghana’s inflation trajectory as of early 2026.
