Zimbabwe Dollar Official Rate Moves To $4 604 Per US Dollar

President Emmerson Mnangagwa has hinted the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) – controlled foreign exchange auction floor system could be done away with, saying it has served its purpose.
Mnangagwa told Brick by Brick magazine that the forex auction system was adopted to deal with a particular challenge that he said has almost been resolved. He said, as quoted by <a href="https://businesstimes.co.zw/govt-to-abandon-forex-auction-system/">Business Times</a>:
<blockquote>
As we go forward, we should reach a stage where we may not need it (Dutch forex auction system) because it’s not necessary.
It has been put there to deal with a particular challenge and I think that challenge is going away. We may reach a stage very soon where we may not need it.
</blockquote>
This comes after industry put pressure on the central bank governor, John Mangudya, to consider scrapping the “inefficient” foreign currency auction system or overhauling it.
Companies have been struggling to access foreign currency allotted to them through the foreign currency auction system, and going for several months before getting the allotted funds.

Mnangagwa Hints At Scrapping RBZ's Forex Auction System

The Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe has reported that one United States Dollar (USD) was sold at ZW$4,517.1359 at the wholesale foreign currency auction held on 27 July 2023 in Harare.
The central bank also reported that it accepted bids worth USD 14,226,060.00 which was allotted. 
In recent weeks, the <a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">Zimbabwean dollar</a> has been strengthening against the <a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">United States</a> dollar (USD) after months of a downward trend.
To stabilize the macroeconomy and the local currency, the government introduced a range of measures. These measures include levying taxes in <a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">Zimbabwean dollars which created demand for the local currency</a>.
The government also made it mandatory for all government agencies, including parastatals, to collect their fees in local currency. Additionally, the Finance Minister directed non-exporters to pay their bills to the <a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">Zimbabwe Electricity Supply Authority</a> (ZESA) in local currency. Furthermore, all <a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">customs duties</a> are now payable in local currency, except for designated or luxury goods, and in cases where the importer chooses to pay in foreign currency.
By requiring fees and bills to be paid in local currency, the government aims to increase demand for the <a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">Zimbabwean dollar</a>, which could help to stabilise its value. This move also reduces the demand for foreign currency, which is essential for importing goods that are not available locally. 
T<a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">he government </a>hopes that these measures will help to stabilise the economy and improve the value of the Zimbabwean dollar. While the Zimbabwean dollar recently strengthened, it remains to be seen how it will perform in the long term.

Zimbabwe Dollar Official Exchange Rate Now $4 868

Captains of the industry say authorities should overhaul the foreign currency auction system to eradicate arbitrage opportunities that some firms and individuals are using to accumulate cheap US dollars.
This comes after Finance and Economic Development Minister Mthuli Ncube said the foreign currency auction platform will be fine-tuned to close the gap between the official exchange rate and the parallel market exchange rate.
Confederation of Zimbabwe Industries (CZI) president Kurai Matsheza told <a href="https://businesstimes.co.zw/business-wants-overhaul-of-forex-auction-system/">Business Times</a> that the forex auction system should be overhauled to represent the true Dutch system, which promotes competition among bidders. Said Matsheza:
<blockquote>
There is a need to do a total fine-tuning of the forex auction system to represent the true characteristics of a Dutch auction system.
As we can see, the authorities have done some piecemeal adjustments to the platform but it is still a long way to go to become the real auction platform.
By doing these small changes, we still have a lot of arbitrage opportunities that some firms and individuals are capitalising on to make money.
An improved auction system is a better platform than an interbank where some people just sit down to decide the exchange rate.
This may be the reason why the official rate is 50% lower than the official rate.
</blockquote>
Zimbabwe now has three forex markets namely the auction, interbank and parallel market.
Economist Gift Mugano recently said the forex markets can only converge if authorities follow the real Dutch auction system. Said Mugano:
<blockquote>
They will only converge if they follow the real Dutch auction system where you take the highest bidder price as the benchmark for the auction rather than taking the average price as done by the RBZ.
They must notify people in advance because one can’t bid in the darkness and only if they follow the rules of the real Dutch auction system will they someday converge.
You will see all the exchange rates moving in different directions. The parallel market rate will be ahead followed by other exchange rates.
The major reason the interbank can’t converge also is that there are some controls that are still there.
There are some limits to how much one can trade whereas there is no limit on the parallel market rate
</blockquote>
The Zimbabwe dollar was this week trading at ZWL$1888.80:US$1 at the auction system and above ZWL$3000: US$1 on the black market.

FOREX AUCTION: Zim Dollar Official Rate 08 September 2020

The RBZ is reportedly borrowing money offshore to feed the forex auction trading system further increasing its ballooning foreign debt which currently stands at US$4.5 Billion. This was revealed by the CEO of Leon Holdings a financial services company and entrepreneur Tinashe Marupata. Marupata was commenting on an article in the Chronicle when he tweeted:
<blockquote>
<div>
<div dir="auto" lang="en">RBZ has been borrowing money offshore to feed the Auction. This is a patently bad market setting move. The tax payer will assume the exchange rate losses. More worrisome is that RBZ offshore debt is US$4.5bn. Another debt assumption bill.</div>
</div>
</blockquote>
<div dir="auto" lang="en">The RBZ introduced the forex trading auction system a few weeks ago in an effort to curb the foreign currency runaway rate which was crawling towards ZWL $100 per US$1. The government had said the auction system will keep a tight leash on money supply and help contain parallel market activities.</div>
