Asian Economic and Financial Review, 2015, vol. 5, issue 1, 167-178

Abstract: This article aims to provide an overview of the current state of corporate governance in Zimbabwe. Corporate governance has gained relevance and prominence in the global society since the big corporate scandals such as Enron and Worldcom. This article is qualitative in nature. Document analysis of relevant literature formulated the discussions. The findings show that Zimbabwe remains amongst a few countries that do not have a national code of corporate governance. However, corporate governance practice in Zimbabwe is regulated by the Companies Act, Zimbabwe Stock Exchange Act as well as rules of various other professional bodies. This article provides an insight into the current practice of corporate governance in Zimbabwe and will help to assist in determining future initiatives.
