Zimbabwe plans to keep its local dollar, a currency that has lost value every single trading day of the year, even as fiscal and monetary authorities work on new plans to revamp the currency, according to Finance Minister Mthuli Ncube.
“We will have a domestic currency, there will always be a domestic currency so there is no way that we cannot have one,” Ncube said in an interview Saturday in Zimbabwe’s second biggest city of Bulawayo. “It’s very important to have a domestic currency so that we don’t just rely on foreign currency only for transactions.”
