The USD-denominated VFEX, a subsidiary of the ZSE, was launched in 2020 as part of efforts to attract global capital and restore foreign investor confidence in Zimbabwe’s capital markets and help companies raise capital in foreign currency.

To date, VFEX has four listings under its books, Caledonia Mining, Seed Co, Bindura Nickel Corporation and Padenga.

Meanwhile, GetBucks Bank, which also intends to migrate to VFEX, has said negotiations for recapitalization and the process to shift to VFEX are still in progress.
