Zimbabwe's Emergency Bearer Cheques were temporary, high-denomination promissory notes issued by the Reserve Bank during hyperinflation (around 2003-2008) to provide liquidity, acting like cash but with expiry dates, offering a unique glimpse into Zimbabwe's monetary crisis. Zimbabwe's monetary crisis is a long-standing issue marked by hyperinflation (peaking around 2008), currency collapse (leading to the US Dollar adoption), and recurrent instability, driven by factors like government mismanagement, land reform, corruption, and excessive money printing, resulting in chronic liquidity issues, high debt, and banking sector fragility. "Hyperinflation in Zimbabwe is an ongoing period of currency instability in Zimbabwe which, using Cagan's definition of hyperinflation, began in February 2007. During the height of inflation from 2008 to 2009, it was difficult to measure Zimbabwe's hyperinflation because the government of Zimbabwe stopped filing official inflation statistics. However, Zimbabwe's peak month of inflation is estimated at 79.6 billion percent month-on-month, 89.7 sextillion (sextillion has 21 zero's) percent year-on-year in mid-November 2008.[1] At that time, a $100 trillion banknote could not pay for a simple bus fare." bron
