flag Zimbabwe's reforms target public sector cuts, export growth, and market openness amid stark inequality and weak public services.

flag Zimbabwe's economy faces severe inequality, with half the national budget spent on an overstaffed, underfunded public sector due to a narrow tax base. flag Proposed reforms aim to cut public spending to 35%, reduce staff, and improve pay fairness while boosting exports through a market-driven approach, currency devaluation, and removal of exchange controls. flag Opening markets to imports and strengthening impartial legal institutions are key. flag The informal sector, including markets, farming, and cross-border trade, drives much of the economy, while illicit activities like unregulated gold exports may exceed formal government revenue. flag Despite elite wealth, public services remain poor, underscoring deep disparities between private affluence and public neglect.
