Zambia’s USD debt saw an uptick after Fitch upgraded the country’s credit outlook following the resolution of a long-standing dispute with Vedanta Resources Ltd over a copper mine, which committed around USD 1 bln in expanding Zambia’s copper mines. The price on USD securities maturing in 2027 jumped 2.7 cents to 56.48 on the USD, the highest in a Bloomberg index tracking fixed and floating-rate USD-denominated debt issued by emerging-market governments.
