Over the past year, remittances have continued to be a vital source of foreign income in many developing countries across Sub – Saharan Africa, contributing significantly to changing the lives of millions of people1.
This year, remittance flows to Ghana are expected to grow to about $4.5 billion, positioning Ghana as one of the highest recipients of remittance inflows in Africa2. Money transfers from Ghanaian migrants overseas have been crucial in enabling many to build resilient households as they have been able to access healthcare services, quality education, and provide food for their families.
