THE central bank says the country must consider adopting a gold-backed Zimbabwean dollar warning that the US greenback’s days as the world’s reserve currency are numbered.

Government ditched the Zimbabwe dollar in 2009 after it had been rendered worthless by record inflation levels and adopted multiple foreign currencies with the US dollar, the South African Rand and the Botswana being the most widely used.

Finance minister Tendai Biti says the country needs at least six months import cover and a sustainable track-record of economic growth, inflation stability and above 60 percent capacity utilisation in industry before the Zim dollar can be brought back into circulation.

However central bank chief, Dr Gideon Gono said the country should consider adopting a gold-backed currency.
“There is a need for us to begin thinking seriously and urgently about introducing a Gold-backed Zimbabwe currency which will not only stable but internationally acceptable,” he said in an interview with state media.

“We need to re-think our gold-mining strategy, our gold-liberalisation and marketing strategies as a country. The world needs to and will most certainly move to a gold standard and Zimbabwe must lead the way.”

Gono said the inflationary effects of United States’ deficit financing of its budget was likely to impact other countries to leading to a resistance of the green back as a base currency.

“The events of the 2008 Global Financial Crisis demand a new approach to self reliance and a stable mineral-backed currency and to me, Gold has proven over the years that it is a stable and most desired precious metal,” Gono said.

“Zimbabwe is sitting on trillions worth of gold-reserves and it is time we start thinking outside the box, for our survival and prosperity.”

Non ho tempo di approfondire adesso, ma se fosse non ci vedo nulla di strano. anzi, buon per loro. e a ulteriore riprova che quella monetaria non è una fisima dei libertari, informo, se già non ne foste a conoscenza, che nel frattempo in Grecia si torna a battere clandestinamente moneta locale.
Ovvero, quello che non offre il mercato legale, lo offre comunque il mercato nero, as usual. :sofico:

Non ti dico le risate, in loco, a cambiare qualcosa nel loro dollarazzo prima della sospensione.

Mi piace immaginare i vari Signor Bovanentura accontentarsi di qualche monetina in cambio delle loro banconote con scritto "1 MILIONE".
