Ghanaian Cedi to Franc CFA exchange rate history
What moves the Ghanaian Cedi rate
The cedi is commodity-linked (gold, cocoa) and was shaped by the 2022-2024 sovereign-debt restructuring and the IMF programme. Inflation, the BoG's reserves and commodity prices are the drivers; the cedi saw heavy cumulative depreciation over that period.
About the Ghanaian Cedi
The Ghanaian Cedi (GHS, ₵) is the official currency of Ghana, issued by the Bank of Ghana. The current Cedi is the third iteration of the currency: it was reintroduced in July 2007 at a rate of 1 new Cedi for 10,000 old Cedis as part of a redenomination intended to simplify accounting and restore confidence in the unit. Subdivided into 100 pesewas, the Cedi has depreciated notably against the USD over the 2020s amid commodity-price volatility and inflation pressures. Ghana is a major gold and cocoa exporter, and Cedi liquidity often tracks commodity revenue cycles. For diaspora flows to MTN MoMo Ghana, AirtelTigo Money and Telecel Cash, the formal-channel Cedi rate sits close to interbank because Ghana's interbank market is comparatively deep and the abolition of the E-Levy in April 2025 removed a transaction-tax layer.
About the Franc CFA
The West African CFA Franc (XOF, FCFA) is the official currency of the eight UEMOA member states — Senegal, Côte d'Ivoire, Mali, Burkina Faso, Benin, Togo, Niger and Guinea-Bissau. It is issued by the Central Bank of West African States (BCEAO) and pegged to the Euro at the fixed rate of 655.957 XOF per 1 EUR — the same parity as the Central African XAF, though the two are not interchangeable. The fixed peg has held continuously since the Euro's launch in 1999. Since 30 September 2025, BCEAO's PI-SPI regional instant-payment system has made individual transfers free and instant across all 8 UEMOA wallets, dramatically reducing the cost of remitting XOF within the union for ordinary users. EUR-XOF flows from the French, Belgian and Italian diaspora are by far the largest UEMOA inbound route.
