Introduction and Background

1.1 This Monetary Policy Statement is issued in terms of the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe Act Chapter 22:15, Section 46.

1.2 The policy priorities and implementation programs that are spelt out in this Monetary Policy Statement are largely drawn from the collectivity of various consultations held with stakeholders, as well as from advice received from the country’s Presidium, Cabinet and NEDPP deliberations.

1.3 The Statement also draws from other broad priorities outlined in national budget statements made by the Hon Minister of Finance Dr. H. M. Murerwa over the past two years, as well as developmental strategy documents mapped out by the Ministry of Economic Development.

1.4 Consistent with the novel strategy of consulting widely, this Monetary Policy Statement also takes into account the galaxy of stakeholder inputs that either came directly to the Central Bank; OR

1.5 those that found expression in various deliberations on the economy across the broad range of constituencies that make up Zimbabwe;

1.6 Our recent discussions with the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the World Bank (WB), and UNDP once again demonstrated the country’s continued readiness to engage with the international community and to seek their assistance in our efforts to deal with our situation.

1.7 I thank all who contributed to the thought process that gave rise to this statement.
