“There is a huge research gap in understanding the channels through which the
trade, investment and aid relations between these Asian countries and Africa affect these sub-sectors and also their resultant impact on economic growth and poverty reduction. Hence, the primary aim of
this study is to determine the size, composition and significance of exports and imports between Ghana and China and to determine the size, composition and significance of Chinese investment and aid to
Ghana. The paper is structured as follows: section 1 includes the introduction and a review of cooperation between China and Ghana; section 2 will deal with investments; section 3 will cover export and import trade flows between Ghana and China with section 4 on aid from China and its impact on the Ghanaian economy. The final section will be the summary and conclusion.”
