RBZ governor Gideon Gono says the country is in desperate need of a clear Presidential winner following yesterday's harmonised elections to usher in a stable macro–economic environment.

In a statement on Tuesday postponing the half-year Monetary Policy Statement announcement to sometime in August due to elections, Gono said the next 6 months would depend on the outcome of the polls.

Gono said the success of proposed measures in the policy statement would hinge on the outcome of the polls, adding that the economy desperately needed a "clear winner and a peaceful ending to the electoral processes" for it to stabilise and prosper.
