the perceived benefits to be accrued from the new path that has been taken by zimbabwe in international relations
Answers
Zimbabwean exporters have been to some degree frustrated because of imperatives in outside trade accessibility with the potential accomplices. The memorable difference in government in South Africa has empowered venture and exchange between the 2 nations, however, the general outcome has been that South Africa has taken a significantly bigger offer of Zimbabwe's local market following the current increase in trade liberalization.
Zimbabwe adopted a new path to re-engage with international institutions, start fresh with foreign businesses and rebuild the economy after the change in government in November 1917. Revitalizing Zimbabwe's economy may not be an easy task. The most important challenge is to resolve the lack of cash in the economy due to which it is difficult for businesses to import goods and for consumers to transact. In order to resolve this problem arrangements have been made with the African Export and Import Bank to provide support for importers and US$ 300 million in new guarantees to permit the central bank to increase printing of "bond notes".
These measures may provide some temporary relief. But to accelerate growth it may be necessary to convince the African Development Bank and the World Bank that the government is a reliable borrower now. Only then it will be possible for Zimbabwe to access the credit required to re-inflate the economy. Progress in resolving these issues may be slow and incremental.
As the reforms begin to stabilize the economy foreign companies may invest in markets offering lifestyle and consumer goods products. An influx of capital may bring about a revival in the formal retail sector within a few years.
