The Zim ASSET blueprint was crafted to achieve sustainable economic development and social equity anchored on the judicious exploitation of the country’s vast human and natural resources. The Government has put in place appropriate strategies to achieve the economic blueprint’s medium and long term goals and objectives which include, but not limited to: Boosting economic recovery and growth with emphasis on Agriculture and Mining; Accelerating Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) to fund mainly Infrastructural Development; Establishment of Special Economic Zones to attract fresh capital to promote innovation and industrialization; Establishment of the Sovereign Wealth Fund, to cater for both present and future generations’ needs; and Addressing systemic institutional capacity challenges.

The OPC in December 2015 coordinated a ZimASSET Mid Term Review exercise as enshrined in the Plan to take stock of its implementation. While some challenges have been encountered, a number of milestones have been registered so far. Following this successful exercise, the Government identified Priority Areas for the next half cycle of implementation of the blueprint, guided by the 10 Point Plan for Economic Growth enunciated by his Excellency, the President in his State of the Nation Address in August 2015.
