Theme: “Building Durable Stability in the face of External Shocks”
AEDS presents a review of Zimbabwe's 2026 economic performance and forecasts for 2027: growth, inflation, the exchange rate, fiscal and external sector developments. These are independent, evidence-based findings drawn from rigorous economic modelling.
About AEDS & the Review
Since 2020 the global economy has faced overlapping shocks: a pandemic, climate change, armed conflicts, geopolitical risks and an unprecedented inflation surge. Together they have permanently altered the economic landscape.
In response, Africa Economic Development Strategies (AEDS), a development think tank, established the Zimbabwe Economic Pulse (ZEP). The ZEP is a flagship report offering hard facts, granular information and forecasts grounded in rigorous economic modelling and analysis.
