Last week, Zimbabwe cleared its overdue obligations to IMF, when it paid $107,9m after drawing down its special drawing rights (SDR) holdings kept at the fund. The payment unlocked the SDR 66,4 million ($91,2m), which has been held in an escrow account pending the clearance of Zimbabwe’s arrears to the Poverty Reduction and Growth Trust (PRGT). ---------- Latest itel S24 available on Pindula: 128GB storage, 4GB RAM $119 USD WhatsApp: +263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 Buy Online: https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s24-128gb-22-20240426142756795795/?s=wanews ---------- IMF resident representative to Zimbabwe, Christian Beddies confirmed that Zimbabwe had accessed the escrowed money, > . . . the amount held in escrow is indeed SDR 66,4 million, which became available to Zimbabwe after settling the overdue obligations.
