Fears mount over ‘inflationary’ 2025 National Budget

LOCAL industry experts have labelled the 2025 National Budget as inflationary, owing to the jump in expenditure compared to this year’s budget. Finance, Economic Development and Investment Promotion minister Mthuli Ncube last week presented a ZiG276,4 billion 2025 National Budget, against expected revenue of ZWG270,3 billion.

Meanwhile, total revenue collections for the current fiscal year are projected at ZiG110,7 billion while expenditures will reach ZiG119,97 billion.
