Ghana's macroeconomic situation is improving, with growth outperforming expectations and authorities making headway on debt, the International Monetary Fund said on Thursday.

IMF spokesperson Julie Kozack told a regular briefing that the West African country's public debt was expected to fall to 60% of gross domestic product this year from 82% in 2022.

She said Ghana needs to continue reforms, including taking steps to boost domestic revenues, to entrench debt sustainability.
