The Ghana Heritage Fund (GHF) posted a strong financial performance in the 2025 fiscal year, closing with a book value of US$1.376 billion, according to the latest Petroleum Funds report released by the Bank of Ghana.
Established under the Petroleum Revenue Management Act, 2011 (Act 815) as an endowment for future generations, the Fund generated a net investment income of US$55.8 million in the second half of 2025.
This performance brought the Fund’s total interest and investment income for the year to over US$79 million, demonstrating the resilience of its diversified investment portfolio despite fluctuations in global capital markets.
The report indicated that the GHF began the second half of the year with a balance of US$1.301 billion and received a mandatory transfer of US$19.05 million from Ghana’s petroleum revenue inflows.
No withdrawals were made from the Fund during the period, in accordance with statutory requirements, allowing both the principal and accumulated returns to continue compounding. The sustained growth of the GHF reflects ongoing efforts to preserve petroleum wealth for long-term national development and intergenerational equity.
