According to reports, commercial banks in Zimbabwe will soon be compelled to accept livestock and household appliances as collateral for cash loans to informal businesses under a new law presented to parliament Tuesday.
Under the Movable Property Security Interests Bill tabled for debate by Finance and Economic Development Minister Patrick Chinamasa in the House of Assembly, the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe will compile and administer a collateral-security register in which small-business operators and individuals can register their movable assets as security for credit.
Vehicles, television sets, refrigerators, computers and other household appliances will become acceptable as collateral once they are evaluated and registered in the central bank’s register, according to Chinamasa.
Can this be replicated in Naija?
