Zimbabwe trumps London in European ECM slump

Zimbabwe has attracted greater listing volume than London in the first three months of the year, amid continued market volatility and a dismal period for equity capital market issuance.

Zeco Holdings, a Zimbabwe-based holding company, raised €463m ($731m) when it floated on the Zimbabwe stock exchange in January, more than double London’s total of £174m (€222m) since the start of the year.
