AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Government Bonds: Zambia’s domestic market showed strong post-election appetite as the August GRZ bond auction reportedly drew K8.6 billion in bids against K6.3 billion offered, oversubscribed by about 36.5% (bid-to-cover 1.37). Mobile Money Competition: Stanbic Bank Zimbabwe launched StanPay, a mobile wallet aimed at challenging EcoCash dominance with cash-in/cash-out and ATM withdrawals via phone vouchers. Trade & Infrastructure: Communities in Zambia’s Zambezi region were urged to support the Kongola–Mulangu road rehabilitation, a 22km stretch expected to ease cross-border truck traffic. Standards & Exports: Zambia’s Bureau of Standards certified Fecko Investment’s Usingini Upland Coffee, clearing the way for formal exports and tackling the smuggling problem. Regional Health Security: ECSA-HC rolled out a six-month Ebola response across 33 border points and 16 trade/migration corridors, including Zambia, to strengthen detection and isolation. Politics & Labour: ZCTU urged Zambians to unite behind President Hichilema and accept election outcomes peacefully through lawful channels. Sports Media: ZNBC secured English Premier League broadcast rights for the 2026/27 season.
