The Securities and Exchange Commission of Zimbabwe (SecZim) has unveiled a Braille handbook for the visually impaired so that they can get to know how capital markets moving.
The SecZim which is a regulatory board which oversees and controls capital markets and provides investor protection.
Government hailed the launch of the Braille Capital Market Handbook in Harare as necessary to boost capital markets literacy for the visually impaired.
Public Service, Labour and Social Welfare disability affairs department director Christine Peta said the launch of the Braille handbook was historic.
“The truth is that while the spotlight has been shone on the needs of the disabled and the inclusion agenda, there remains slow progress to closing the inclusion gap,” she said.
“Therefore, this invitation is a most welcome and historic development to launch a capital market guide for the blind in Braille.”
Braille is a writing system used by people who are visually impaired, including people who are blind, deafblind or who have low vision.
