Getbucks Microfinance Bank Limited has settled a full delisting from the Zimbabwe Stock Exchange (ZSE) and subsequent migration to the Victoria Falls Stock Exchange (VFEX) after previously backtracking on the decision.

The company joins several companies that have fled the ZSE for the VFEX in recent months citing the need to raise capital in US dollars.

The move, if successful is expected to assist Getbucks realize its US$ 5 million recapitalization plans to meet the required minimum capital threshold set by the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe.

“Further to the cautionary announcement dated 20 December 2022 advising of termination of the process of migration of the Company’s listed securities from the Zimbabwe Stock Exchange (ZSE) to the Victoria Falls Stock Exchange (VFEX) shareholders are advised that the Company is now considering a full delisting of its securities on the ZSE,” said Getbucks.
