While engaged in a twitter discussion with a friend, we ventured into the topic of Ghana’s imports and exports. I knew we would have a huge deficit but I wasn’t expecting it to be over US$1.3 billion. That information and the chart below I got from tradingeconomics.com. The chart shows Ghana’s balance of trade, i.e. monetary value of exports less monetary value of imports, from 2003. http://www.tradingeconomics.com/iframe/chart.aspx?url=/ghana/balance-of-trade
