Investors have called upon the Securities and Exchange Commission of Zimbabwe (SECZ) to come up with strong monitoring mechanisms to protect the interests of the investing public. Reports suggest that some directors of listed companies do not disclose enough information for shareholders. This has an impact on decisions made by shareholders.

Rob Stangroom an investor relations expert said that it is mandatory for listed companies to regularly provide information that is timely, regular and more consistent. This is done for shareholders to make informed decisions.
