STOCK MARKET DEVELOPMENTS

Activity on the stock market during the
month of April 2013, remained subdued as a
result of persistent liquidity constraints in the
economy.


In particular, the liquidity challenges dampened the participation of local investors on
the ZSE. Trading was, therefore, largely sustained by foreign investors who purchased
US$17.5 million worth of shares, against
sales of US$7.6 million in April 2013.

As a result of subdued activity, trading volumes declined, from 231.1 million shares in
the previous month to 154.8 million shares in
April 2013. Over the same period last year,
trading volumes were recorded at 439.2 million shares, representing a 64.8% decrease on
a year-on-year basis.
Market turnover also declined to US$25.7
million in April, from US$37.7 million in
March 2013. On an annual basis, market
turnover registered a 19% decrease, from
US$31.8 million in April 2012.

The limited trading that occurred on the ZSE
was largely concentrated on a few heavily
capitalized counters which included Delta,
Innscor, Econet and OK. These trades underpinned the 3.1% increase in the industrial
index, which closed the month under review
at 189.66 points. On a year-to-date basis, the
industrial index gained 25.4%.

The mining index, however, recovered from
the previous downward trend, on the back of
gains from Falgold (27.3%) and Hwange
(33.2%). The mining index closed the month

2 3

2 4
under review 8.7% higher, at 71.98 points.
On a year-to-date basis, the mining index
gained 8.6% in April 2013.

The above developments resulted in market
capitalization rising by 3.6%, from US$4.73
billion in March to US$4.89 billion in April
2013. On a year-to-date basis, market capitalization also registered a gain of 24.3%.


MONETARY DEVELOPMENTS

Annual growth in broad money increased to
14.85% in April 2013, from 10.47% in
March. In absolute terms, broad money went
up from US$3.79 billion in March to
US$3.97 billion in April 2013.

On a month on month basis, broad money
grew by 4.4% in April, compared to a decline of 0.4% recorded in March 2013. The
increase reflected expansions of 6.2% and
6.1% in demand and under 30-day deposits,
respectively.
Partially offsetting the increase in demand
and short term deposits was a decline of
US$6.7 million in savings deposits, from
US$427.8 million in March to US$421.1
million in April 2013. Long term deposits
remained unchanged at US$526.4 million.

3 5
On an annual basis, credit to the private sector grew by 23.0% in April 2013, compared
to 38.4% recorded in April 2012. The credit
growth rate, in real terms, also declined reflecting the generally slowdown in lending
by banks, owing to increased uncertainties
in the economy.
Outstanding credit to the private sector decreased by US$50.9 million to US$3 569.4
million in April 2013, from US$3 620.4
million recorded in March. The decline in
was partially attributed to a general slowdown in lending by banks, loan maturities
not rolled over, as well as impairments owing to high credit risks.

The slowdown in credit growth also mirrored the declining growth trend of deposits.
Loans and advances were largely extended to
households (18.4%), agriculture (17.5%),
manufacturing
(17.2%)
and
distribution
(16.4%) activities.

As at the end of April 2013, loans and advances accessed by economic agents were
used for raw materials and stocks, 36.6%;
consumer durables, 12%; capital expenditures, 18.7%; trade finance, 2%; and other recurrent expenditures, 30.7%. On the backdrop
of high liquidity risks in the economy, loans
and advances utilized for fixed investment
activities, which require long term capital,
constituted only 11.7% of the total credit as at
end of April 2013.

Credit to Government registered an increase
of 5.5%, from US$170.6 million in March to
US$180 million in April 2013 largely reflecting private placements of Treasury bills.


INFLATION DEVELOPMENTS

Annual Inflation

Domestic inflation slowed 2.49% in April
2013, down from 2.76% in March 2013, on
the back of positive developments in both domestic and external factors.
Depressed international oil and food prices,
coupled with a depreciated South Africa rand,

contributed to a slowdown in domestic inflation.
Annual food inflation slowed down to 3.58%
in April 2013, from 4.18% in March 2013,
while non-food inflation also declined from
2.04% to 1.94%, during the same period.
Annual food inflation was largely driven by
increases in prices of bread and cereals, meat,
fish and vegetables, while increases in rentals, transport, education and alcoholic beverages and tobacco largely contributed to annual non-food inflation.
Month-on-Month Inflation

Month-on-month inflation stood at -0.07 % in
April 2013, down from 0.21% in March
2013, largely reflecting the slowdown in
food prices.
Monthly food inflation fell to -0.44% in
April 2013, from 0.32% in March 2013,
largely as a result of decreases in cereal
prices.
Monthly non-food inflation posted a lower
increase of 0.11% in April 2013, from 0.15%
in March 2013, following declines in clothing and footwear, furniture and equipment,
as well as communication.
Inflation Outlook
Inflation is expected to remain low and stable, on account of a favourable outlook of
exogenous factors, which include international oil and food prices, as well as US$/
rand exchange rate depreciation.

NATIONAL
PAYMENTS
SYSTEM
DEVELOPMENTS

During the month of April 2013, there was
an increase in all payment platforms.
Zimbabwe Electronic Transfer Settlement
System (ZETSS)
The value of transactions processed through
the RTGS system in April 2013 increased by
6% to US$3.54 billion, from US$3.33 billion
in March 2013, while the volume of transactions registered an increase of 2%, from 179
435 to 182 865 in the same period.

Card Systems


The total value of card based transactions
rose by 5.1%, from US$312.5 million in
March to US$328.2 million in April 2013.

Mobile and Internet Based Transactions

The value of mobile and internet based transactions rose by 28.6%, from US$220.6 million recorded in March 2013 to US$283.6
million in April 2013.
Cheques

In value terms, cheque transactions increased
by 9.2%, from US$15.2 million in March
2013 to US$16.6 million in March 2013.
