"Just this year, the Government anticipates that they're going to be able to produce a historic more than 800,000 metric tons [of copper]. The President [of Zambia] is actually indicating 1 million. And over the medium term, 3 million metric tons. That has potentially given a rise in terms of appetite within the market. Then, with respect to the copper prices, we've been able to see them at their historic highs again. [...] We have been speaking around trying to increase investor confidence. We've been able to get to see that we have been facilitating over the period of time, increased foreign portfolio inflows. We must be able to state that when foreign investors are buying Zambian equities and bonds, which are already listed on the Lusaka Securities Exchange, they are essentially trying to provide foreign currency reserves, which then help us to convert these into [Zambian] Kwacha as they transact," Kabaso expressed.
