During the Zimbabwe-Mauritius Business Forum held in Port Louis on 19 August 2026, both sides agreed to strengthen business ties by boosting trade and investment between the two countries. The Forum was jointly organized by the Mauritius Chamber of Commerce and Industry (MCCI<\/a>) and its counterpart, the Zimbabwe National Chamber of Commerce (ZNCC<\/a>). In that regard, the Mauritius International Financial Center (IFC) is set to play a greater role in channeling Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) into Zimbabwe.<\/p>\n\n\n

Other than the MCCI President Drishtysingh Ramdenee and ZNCC President Josephine Takundwa, several ministers attended the marquee event, including the Minister of Industry Ameer Meea, and the Junior Minister of Foreign Affairs Rajen Narsinghen. The Economic Development Board of Mauritius, the Financial Services Commission of Mauritius, the Central Bank of Mauritius, and Business Mauritius were also present.<\/p>\n\n\n

According to the IMF, Foreign Direct Investment (#FDI<\/a>) into Zimbabwe cumulated to USD 8.5 billion. The Mauritius IFC contributed some USD 1.4 billion, accounting for nearly 17% of the total FDI stock, as at June 2025. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is worth noting that the source of funds may not originate from Mauritius itself, but is rather routed through the #IFC<\/a> into the continent. Astute Investors tend to select this indirect route to optimize their global portfolio. Mauritius provides global investors with a certain level of comfort and confidence, while Zimbabwe offers high-yield assets in the mining and energy sectors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
