Zimbabwe's investment agency created a new system to help foreign companies solve problems. The Investment and Development Agency wants more businesses to put money into the country. Government officials launched the Investor Grievance Response Mechanism for companies that face trouble with rules or contracts. The platform helps investors talk directly with government departments about their concerns.
Companies can report issues before they become major lawsuits or business failures. The agency promises to investigate complaints quickly and find solutions fast. Mining and farming businesses have received most investment licenses worth billions of dollars. Agency leaders worry that big mining companies still avoid Zimbabwe despite the new protections.
Local pension funds and banks refuse to invest large amounts of money inside Zimbabwe. Foreign investors notice this pattern and stay away from the country. The investment agency passed new laws four years ago to protect business owners. Company executives can file complaints through the official system when government actions hurt their projects.
