Zimbabwe : Early Positive Results, Push GDP Growth Forecast to 5%

Buoyed by early positive results of its economic reform program,  Zimbabwe pushes  GDP growth forecast to 5% from 4,5%.

A key component of the country’s economic reform program is development finance from China. This would have  short-term to long -term effects.

As Zimbabwe strives to create a business -friendly environment, Western finance kicking in but at a slower pace; affecting mostly the mining sector of the economy.

However, the recent embarrassing cholera outbreak for which Mmangagwa

is already spending tens of millions hard earned dollars  points to a deficit in preventive  health -care-delivery that can generate unforeseen effects on economic growth.

Nonetheless increasing government confidence in its performance can have a positive effect in the direction of national economic policy.
