Zimbabwe’s Finance Minister, Professor Mthuli Ncube, has pointed to the country’s stable and low inflation environment as a critical factor in strengthening macroeconomic predictability.
The minister argued that this stability has bolstered confidence in the local currency, the Zimbabwe Gold (ZiG), and established a firmer foundation for sustained economic activity.
The comments come as the ZiG shows signs of stabilization, supported by government assertions of growing foreign reserves and targeted policy measures.
Ncube’s remarks aim to reassure markets and the business community that the current monetary regime is delivering on its promise of price stability, a key prerequisite for broader investment confidence.
This development sets the stage for the upcoming 2026 Mid-Term Budget Review, which Ncube is scheduled to present on Thursday.
The review is expected to draw significant attention from investors and consumers alike, as it will outline the government’s fiscal trajectory and policy adjustments for the remainder of the year.
