USD to GHS Converter

About the USD/GHS Pair

Ghana is one of West Africa's larger economies, with gold, cocoa, and oil among its major exports and sources of dollar revenue. The cedi has been redenominated in the past — removing several trailing zeros from the currency — as part of efforts to simplify transactions after periods of high inflation eroded the value of the previous currency unit. The Bank of Ghana manages the cedi's exchange rate as part of broader efforts to control inflation and stabilize the economy.
