Economic commentator Gift Mugano has predicted that Zimbabwe’s annual inflation will be 400% with the exchange rate likely hitting ZWL$1500: US$1 by June this year.
The Zimbabwe dollar is currently trading at ZWD$1.100 to the USD on the black market, <a href="https://www.newzimbabwe.com/annual-inflation-to-reach-400-while-exchange-rate-likely-to-hit-zw1500-by-june-says-economic-analyst/">reported NewZimbabwe.com.</a>
Year-on-year inflation was also the highest in the world at 255% in November last year.
Responding to claims by the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) governor John Mangudya, that the country’s de-dollarisation was on course, Mugano said on the contrary, the central bank’s policies are driving dollarisation.
He argued that chronic inflation and the 200 percent interest rate are some of the main drivers of dollarisation. Said Mugano:
<blockquote>
I am still convinced that the following remains our economic outlook by June 2023; annual inflation of 400% and exchange rate ZW$1500/US$1.
… we have deepened dollarisation. The main drivers of dollarisation are chronic inflation, 200% interest rate, excess liquidity caused by Treasury and domestic export retention as well as high export retention.
With a 200% interest rate, businesses have switched to USD loans since it has virtually become impossible to pay back loans fourfold.
The 20% domestic export retention and 40% export retention compels RBZ to print ZWL in exchange for the 20% domestic deposits and 40 percent export receipts.
RBZ does not have a budget set aside for this. This drives up money supply. In August and September 2022, money supply rose by $708 bn excess liquidity driven by the treasury.
</blockquote>
Mugano noted that excessive liquidity driven by treasury is driving inflation and de-dollarisation cannot be achieved in such an environment. He said:
<blockquote>
Excessive liquidity driven by treasury – without going far, in December 2022, treasury irresponsibly made last-minute payments to Ministries and government departments’ requests thereby putting the rate into disarray.
</blockquote>
The Treasury could have staggered these payments during the course of the year.
<blockquote>
Inflation and de-dollarisation can only happen when the country attains single-digit inflation and exchange rates are stable.
This will cultivate a productive culture which is key to supporting the local currency. This is missing. We have chronic inflation and volatile exchange rates.
</blockquote>
To further prove his point that the economy is dollarising, Mugano pointed to the sudden decline of allotment from the RBZ’s auction system. He said:
<blockquote>
The auction system allotment is an interesting one. In 2022 imports surged to above US$ 8.2 billion (exceeding 2021 imports by US$1 billion) but the USD allotted to firms declined from US$42 million per week to US$11 million.
So imports are increasing but the forex given by the RBZ to firms to support imports is falling.
It tells you one thing, firms are now relying on their own generated forex from local sales to meet their import requirements.
This means that we have deepened dollarisation.
</blockquote>

Top Economist Predicts Sharp Rise In Inflation, Exchange Rates By June 2023

Finance and Economic Development Minister, Mthuli Ncube, on Thursday, insisted that the Government has put in place strong economic fundamentals to support the Zimbabwe dollar and full dollarisation is not an option.
Ncube said the Government is now focusing on ending arbitrage and speculative behaviour driving the depreciation of the local currency.
The local currency has shed considerable value in recent months both on the formal and informal markets and economic commentators and ordinary people have called for the dollarisation of the economy.
The Zimbabwe dollar is trading at ZWL$338: US$1, while on the parallel market it is going for anything between ZWL$500-ZWL$550 against the greenback.
Addressing a meeting on the currency crisis convened by the Political Actors Dialogue (POLAD) interlocutors in Harare on Thursday, Ncube blamed indiscipline within the market for the loss of value of the local currency. Said Ncube:
<blockquote>
When you look at the fundamentals, they are strong in the sense of the deficit position, fiscal position and the monetary policy position, and when we consider the current account situation as well.
We should end the year again with a current account surplus with more inflows than outflows into the economy.
So, the fundamentals are strong; there is nothing wrong with the fundamentals.
It is really the arbitrage and speculative behaviour that we see in the market, and we have taken some measures to deal with that.
</blockquote>
Ncube also ruled out full dollarisation, saying the country will continue the use of the dual currency system in line with the Government’s five-year de-dollarisation plan. He said:
<blockquote>
We cannot just have the USD circulating because that will wipe out the balance sheets of companies. If you do that it will create a very dangerous situation.
You will also wipe out the pension balances so we do not want to go there, we have been there before.
Here we are trying to compensate citizens for losses (incurred when the country adopted the multi-currency regime) and people want to go back there.

Mthuli Ncube: Fundamentals To Support Strong Zim Dollar In Place

CCC leader Nelson Chamisa has urged President Emmerson Mnangagwa to get rid of the Zimbabwe dollar and adopt the US dollar as the sole currency in order to stabilise the economy.
In a position paper on the state of the economy released on Friday, 29 April, Chamisa said the Government should immediately come up with a de-dollarisation roadmap that takes into account the views of all stakeholders. Chamisa said:
<blockquote>
Stop the auction system and go for dollarisation. This will immediately remove distortions, multiple pricing, arbitrage, secure stability and save exporting companies from imminent collapse and help all businesses and economic agents to preserve capital.
… There is a crisis of confidence in the market. Citizens are suffering from the price hikes and the deepening poverty level.
All government policies must be demand-driven, inclusive and fully consultative.
We should immediately work on a de-dollarisation roadmap which is inclusive and evidence-based and built on consensus as opposed to command economics and threatening businesses with statutory instruments.
</blockquote>
The Government re-introduced the Zimbabwe dollar in 2019 after a decade of a multiple currency regime which brought relative stability to the economy.
The local currency has, however, lost value alarmingly due to the low confidence in the market and this has triggered inflation and sharp price increases.
Economist Gift Mugano also called for full dollarisation, saying businesses cannot thrive where the exchange rate changes daily. Said Mugano:
<blockquote>
We should go for full dollarisation clearly because the current economic trajectory has rejected the Zimbabwean dollar.
It’s difficult for businesses to run their companies when rates are changing every day.
With these ugly indicators, there is no company that can operate sustainably.
In any way, the economy is already dollarised as evidenced by the rejection of the Zimbabwe dollar by retailers.
</blockquote>
However, another economist, Maxwell Saungweme, said dollarisation was not sustainable and what the Government needs to do is to stabilise the Zimbabwe dollar. He said:
<blockquote>
The fundamental issue is not about dollarisation, but the stability of our local currency. Zimbabwe needs to have its own stable currency.
What must be done is to work on measures to stabilise our local, not advocating for its removal and replacing it with the US dollar.
We need to get our economic fundamentals right, boost our productive capacities and have other clear measures to stabilise our currency.
You can’t run an economy without the capacity to leverage monetary policy instruments.
You lose your capacity to leverage monetary policy instruments.

Get Rid Of Zimbabwe Dollar And Fully Adopt US Dollar, Says Chamisa

<blockquote>The Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (the Bank) wishes to advise the public that the document titled “De-dollarisation Road Map” which has been circulating on social media was leaked by a senior Bank economist, Philton Makena, who had access to a document on the macro-economic policy measures to support the five-year de-dollarisation strategy which was being worked on by a team of economists in the Bank.
The draft document is not official as it has not even been discussed at both Bank and Government levels. The document should, therefore, be disregarded.
The draft document was being worked on by the team of economists on a computer allocated to a chief economist in the Bank, Paul Gilmour Mukoki. The Bank has since established that Mr Mukoki was not responsible for the leakage of the document.
Mr Makena’s conduct amounted to breach of the oath of secrecy by which all Bank employees are bound.
Accordingly, the Bank has suspended him, with immediate effect, and has commenced disciplinary proceedings against him.
The Bank sincerely regrets the anxiety and inconvenience the leaked document may have caused.

Governor

FULL TEXT: RBZ Speaks On 'Leaked' De-dollarisation Roadmap Document

Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) Governor <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/John_Mangudya" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">John Mangudya</a> said de-dollarisation is a process and the central bank will not reveal the timelines of when the whole process will be achieved.
Mangudya said this while responding to questions from journalists on the RBZ’s perceived inconsistencies regarding the de-dollarisation. He said:
<blockquote>When we talk about de-dollarisation, it does not mean everything else stops. We need to look at the benefits of dollarisation and de-dollarisation.
We have gold producers who are paid 50 per cent in forex and 50 per cent in the local currency, how do you expect them to use their foreign currency?
What we have not done is give timelines on what we did on day 1 day 2 day 3 day 4 for everyone to see the process.
There is no inconsistency in that regard, some companies are trading in foreign currency, some are being taxed in foreign currency, it is a process. What is left is having timelines.
We are all aware that 60 per cent of the economy is informal and 40 per cent is formal and there is too much money in the informal economy. So, this is a way of taking foreign currency to the formal economy when they buy fuel in foreign currency.</blockquote>
Zimbabwe ditched the use of multi-currencies in June last year and re-introduced the Zimbabwe dollar.

Mangudya Justifies 'Pace' Of De-dollarisation

Some Kombi crews in Harare are now demanding transport fares in foreign currency saying that they buy fuel in US dollars.
A tout who spoke to NewZimbabwe.com and identified himself as Sam revealed that the transport fare from the city centre to Chitungwiza has been pegged at US$1 while that from <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Warren_Park" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Warren Park</a> to the city centre is now US$0.50. Said Sam:
<blockquote>We are buying fuel in US dollars so it is only logical that we charge in the same currency.
My kombi plies the Warren Park 1 to town route which is not really strict on US dollar payments but my colleagues plying the Chitungwiza route are already demanding US$1 per person or equivalent for them to buy foreign currency on the black market at the end of their working day.
Fares to Warren Park 1 and back have been rising everyday hence we have opted to encourage our passengers to pay US$1 per pair.</blockquote>
In 2019, the government of Zimbabwe banned the use of foreign currency in domestic transactions, with Finance Minister <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Mthuli_Ncube" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Mthuli Ncube</a> and Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe Governor <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/John_Mangudya" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">John Mangudya</a> insisting that de-dollarisation is irreversible.
However, economic analysts have since warned authorities that the re-introduction of the Zimbabwe dollar was done prematurely with no supporting fundamentals in place.

Kombi Crews Now Charging Transport Fares In US Dollars - REPORT

Governor of the <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Reserve_Bank_of_Zimbabwe" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe</a>, <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/John_Mangudya" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">John Mangudya</a> has said de-dollarisation is a process and not an event, and additionally, foreign currency will remain acceptable in a de-dollarized economy.
Mangudya claimed that in the DRC, 70 per cent of transactions remain in forex despite a path to de-dollarisation, while in Belarus forex is still being used though the country is now in its eighth year of de-dollarisation. He said:
<blockquote>As a Government, we have defined where we are going, and that is the de-dollarisation route.
Because it’s a process and not an event, we are saying as the central bank that we believe within five years, we will complete de-dollarisation.
By de-dollarisation we are not saying there will be no more foreign currency in circulation; that is a wrong definition of de-dollarisation because if you look at those countries that have de-dollarised, for instance, Zambia, Cameroon, Ethiopia, they still accept foreign currency and you can still open a foreign currency account.</blockquote>
Mangudya’s remarks follow a recent announcement made by <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Zuva_Petroleum" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Zuva Petroleum</a> that it will be accepting foreign currency for fuel payments at eight of the firm’s service stations across the country.
Meanwhile, the Zimbabwe Energy Regulatory Authority (ZERA), which license fuel companies to sell fuel in foreign currency, has already made it clear that applicants will have to meet a number of conditions.

Mangudya: De-dollarisation Does NOT Mean There Will Be No More Forex In Circulation

A local securities company Morgan &amp; Co has scoffed at the RBZ’s drive to de-dollarise the economy and said the idea that the economy was de-dollarising as pawned by they RBZ Chief <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/John_Mangudya">John Mangudya</a> and the treasury boss<a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Mthuli_Ncube"> Mthuli Ncube</a> was pure fiction, The Standard reports.
A review by Morgan &amp; Co reads:
<blockquote>We are perplexed by the fact the monetary authorities in Zimbabwe exhibit a lack of touch and appreciation of developments within the broader monetary system. The idea that the economy is de-dollarising is extreme fiction.
Our concern is that those that follow economic policy developments in Zimbabwe will have to separate fiction from reality so as to make sound investment decisions.</blockquote>
On the contrary, the economy has re-dollarised as businesses are openly seen selling their goods in Forex despite <a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2019/10/18/govt-to-enforce-compliance-on-use-of-the-zimbabwe-dollar/">Mthule Ncube saying treasury will enforce compliance</a> when it comes to charging in forex.

The Idea That The Economy Is De-Dollarising Is Extreme Fiction - Morgan & Co

MDC leader <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Nelson_Chamisa" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Nelson Chamisa</a> has said de-dollarisation is a lie and a pretence as senior government officials shun the local <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/RTGS_Dollars" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">RTGS dollars</a> in favour US dollars.
Chamisa made the remarks while addressing a press conference at the party’s headquarters on Wednesday morning. He said:
<blockquote>Government is transacting in the US dollar. Mr Mnangagwa is carrying US dollars in his pocket and so is everyone in government.
So we don’t want to live a lie. This is part of the biggest challenge our country is facing.
We seem to thrive on institutional dishonesty and taking lies to be our modus operandi. Why should we pretend that the RTGS is the currency of choice?
When in fact the currency of choice is the US dollar. Some of the distortions we are seeing are on account of denial.</blockquote>
While Finance and Economic Development Minister Mthuli Ncube has warned that businesses that are demanding foreign currency will be punished, <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Zuva_Petroleum" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Zuva Petroleum</a> on Tuesday announced that it will be selling fuel at eight selected service stations in foreign currency.
