Ghana’s restructured eurobonds rose on the second day of trading after Fitch Ratings deemed them out of default. The 2029 bonds gained 0.4 cent, while 2037 bonds appreciated by 1.5 cents.

Ghana issued five new dollar bonds as part of a $13 billion eurobond restructuring. Fitch rated the securities CCC+, signaling that they were no longer in default despite credit risks.
