The Bank of Ghana's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) has issued its timetable for 2024, a move designed to provide clarity and assurance to the financial markets.

During these scheduled meetings, the MPC conducts assessments of the current economic landscape and evaluates the anticipated inflation outlook.

Following thorough deliberations, the committee members finalize decisions on the monetary policy rate through a democratic process, employing a one-person one-vote basis. In instances where a unanimous decision proves challenging, the committee strives to reach a consensus.

The MPC's meetings for the year 2024 are organized as follows:

The first meeting is scheduled from January 23 to 26, concluding with a press conference on January 29. Subsequently, the second meeting will take place from March 20 to 22, with a press conference on March 25.

Moving forward, the third meeting is set for May 22 to 24, wrapping up with a press conference on May 27. The fourth meeting will occur from July 23 to 26, ending with a press conference on July 29.

The fifth meeting is slated for September 25 to 27, concluding with a press conference on September 30. Finally, the last meeting for 2024 is planned for November 20 to 22, ending with a press conference on November 25.

This comprehensive timetable serves to keep stakeholders well-informed about the MPC's activities and decision-making processes throughout the upcoming year.
