Zimbabwe’s central bank says there is enough ZiG, the country’s local currency, to meet current and future demand. In a statement yesterday to allay concerns about the availability of the local currency, the central bank says usage of the ZiG, which stands for Zimbabwe Gold, has improved significantly since its launch in April last year. Payments in the local currency increased from ZiG7.86 billion in April last year to ZiG56.8 billion as of 30 May this year. The central bank says some banks are already dispensing ZiG at their ATMs. Even the International Monetary Fund is reported to be in favour of the use of the local currency.
