Cash Flow as a Measure of Performance in Emerging Economies: The Ghana Example

This essay is about cash flow as a measure of performance in emerging economies: the Ghana example. The utilization of cash flow ratios for the prediction as well as the understanding of the performance of businesses is an exercise that is slowly gaining prominence, if the number of research publications in the same area is anything to go by. As an emerging economy, Ghana has over the years instituted a number of economic reforms, under the guidance of both the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund, thereby ensuring that Ghana becomes a force to reckon with economically (Yartey & Adjasi 2007) , not just in Africa, but also to the rest of the developing nations.
