SELECTED ECONOMIC INDICATORS

INTERNATIONAL COMMODITY PRICE
DEVELOPMENTS

International monthly average commodity
prices for precious metals, selected base metals
and Brent crude oil firmed, during the month of
February 2022. Commodity markets were
largely buoyed by growing concerns over the
potential
adverse
impact
of
escalating
geopolitical tensions on the global supply of
commodities, following the invasion of
Ukraine by Russia.

Precious Metals

Gold
Gold prices rose by 2.2%, from a monthly
average of US$1,816.92 per ounce in January
2022 to US$1,856.94 per ounce, during the
month under review. Prices largely firmed on
fears of a global economic slowdown,
following the imposition of sanctions on
Russia. In addition, rising US inflation
continued to support the precious metal’s
appeal as a safe haven asset.
Platinum
Platinum prices rose by 5.6% to average
US$1,049.40 per ounce in February 2022, from
US$993.50 per ounce in the previous month.
The increase was mainly on account of
escalating geopolitical tensions between Russia
and the West, over Ukraine, which heightened
concerns about supply disruptions. Russia is
one of the world’s largest platinum producers.

prices for the period from February 2021 to
February 2022.

Base Metals

Copper
Copper prices remained upbeat during the
month under review, supported by falling
global inventories, at a time when demand for
the red metal is increasing. Prices rose by 1.4%,
to close the month of February 2022 at an
average of US$9,926.09 per tonne, from
US$9,785.67 per tonne in January 2022.

Nickel
Nickel prices rose by 7.8%, from an average of
US$22,193.62 per tonne in January 2022 to
US$23,924.30 per tonne, during the month
under review. The rally in nickel prices was
underpinned by strong demand from the
stainless-steel industry and electric vehicle
battery manufacturers. In addition, prices
increased after the West imposed sanctions on
Russia, the world’s major producer of nickel,
further tightening the global supply of the base
metal. Figure 2 shows developments in base

Brent Crude Oil
Brent crude oil prices rallied on account of
mounting fears over global energy supplies,
amid plans by the US to impose sanctions on
Russian oil. Furthermore, an unexpected drop
in US crude oil inventories also supported
prices, during the month under review. Prices
rose by 9.6%, to a monthly average of
US$93.81 per barrel from US$85.56 per barrel,
recorded in the previous month. Figure 3 shows
the movement in Brent crude oil prices for the
period from February 2021 to February 2022.

MERCHANDISE
TRADE
DEVELOPMENTS

During the month of January 2022, the
country’s total merchandise trade amounted to
US$1.175.9 million, representing a 13.7%
decline from the US$1,362.4 million recorded
in December 2021. The month-on-month
decline in total merchandise trade was on
account of slowdowns in both exports and
imports. Compared to the corresponding month
in 2021, however, the outturn for the month
under review was 44.9% higher.

Merchandise Exports
Total merchandise exports eased by 8.0%, from
US$591.2 million in December 2021, to
US$543.9 million in January 2022. Year-on
year, merchandise exports grew by 92.3%,
from US$282.9 million in January 2021, as
shown in Figure 4.

Merchandise Trade Balance
The country’s trade balance significantly
narrowed, from a deficit of US$179.9 million
in December 2021 to a deficit of US$88.1
million in January 2022. This was on account
of the sharp decline in imports. Figure 8 shows
the trend in the country’s trade balance for the
period from January 2021 to January 2022.

balance also narrowed from a deficit of

MONETARY DEVELOPMENTS1

Broad money amounted to ZW$506.13 billion
in February 2022, compared to ZW$470.44
billion recorded in January 2022. The money
stock was largely composed of local currency
deposits, 54.87%; and foreign currency
deposits, 44.61%. Currency in circulation
constituted 0.52% of total money supply.

supply.

foreign

respectively. Partially offsetting the increases,
was a decline of ZW$1.82 billion in local
currency transferable deposits.
During the month under review, net domestic
claims increased by 12.48%, to ZW374.47
billion. The growth was largely due to increases
of ZW$20.83 billion and ZW$13.25 billion in
credit to the private sector and net claims on
Government, respectively.
On an annual basis, broad money registered a
growth of 123.77%, down from 489.98% in
February 2021. The local currency component
of broad money grew by 140.60%; while
foreign
currency
deposits
increased
by
116.47%.
The growth in foreign currency deposits, from
ZW$109.66 billion in February 2021 to
ZW$225.78 billion in February 2022, was
largely due to an increase in the value of foreign
currency accounts (FCA) deposits, from
US$1.31 billion in February 2021 to US$1.82
billion in February 2022. Revaluation due to
exchange rate movements also contributed to
the increase in the local currency equivalent of
the FCA deposits.
The annual growth in broad money was largely
due to increases of 187.86% and 185.19% in
credit to the private sector and net claims on
Government, respectively. Banking sector
credit to Government was mainly in the form of
Treasury bill holdings by banks.
Credit to the private sector mainly benefited the
agriculture and household sectors, which
received 27.46% and 23.68% of the total credit,
respectively.
The
distribution
and
manufacturing sectors also received 12.89%
and 12.38%, respectively, while credit shares
for the rest of the economic sectors are shown
in Figure 5.
Figure 10: Distribution of Private Sector
Credit


Source: Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe, 2022
Credit to the private sector was largely
channeled towards inventory build-up, 34.02%;
other recurrent expenditures, 25.66%; and
fixed capital investments, 17.51%.

INFLATION OUTTURN

Annual Inflation

Annual headline inflation accelerated to
66.11% in February 2022, from 60.61% in
January 2022. This followed increases in both
food and non-food inflation. The increase in
inflation was, in large part, attributable to the
resurgence of inflationary pressures, due to
rising parallel market premiums and imported
inflation.

Year-on-year food inflation surged from
63.31% in January 2022 to 69.29% in February
2022. The annual food prices rose, partially in
line with the FAO world food price index
which hit an all-time-high of 19.5% in January
