AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Copper-led optimism: Investors remain bullish on Zambia’s stocks, bonds and kwacha despite post-election tensions, betting on policy continuity and a potential new IMF anchor as copper rallies lift sentiment and local debt demand. Critical minerals diplomacy: India has resumed talks with Zambia on investing in copper and other critical minerals, after earlier delays linked to mining-right assurances. US-Zambia trade push: US Assistant Secretary Frank Garcia Jr arrived in Lusaka and met President Hichilema, with Washington signalling “trade over aid” priorities around investment, mining and health. Inauguration politics and risk: President Hichilema is set to be sworn in for a second term amid heightened security and a treason case involving opposition leader Brian Mundubile and Makebi Zulu, while regional leaders including Kenya’s Ruto attend. Regional trade facilitation: Customs authorities from Malawi, Mozambique, South Africa, Zambia and Zimbabwe agreed a roadmap to link systems and share trade data to speed clearance and curb illicit cross-border trade. Food security finance: FRA says it has bought over 1 million tonnes of maize since May 1, paying more than K6bn to farmers, while also purchasing paddy rice. Digital economy expansion: Zambia is among eight new members approved to join the Digital Cooperation Organization, expanding the bloc’s influence over data, AI and cross-border trade rules.
