South Africa is considered by many as the gateway to Africa after it joined the organization of leading economies in 2011 to form the Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa (BRICS) alliance. Opportunities are present for massive growth on the back of trade with China, India and other emerging markets. This briefing will look at the developments within South Africa, including planned infrastructure investments, to determine whether this country has the potential to remain an economic powerhouse in Africa. For example, in the next 5 years, investment driven growth may give South Africa a comparative advantage.
Why you should attend:
- Learn more about South Africa's economic performance in the past decade and the potential future scenarios for economic growth in the next five years.
- Distinguish new infrastructure developments, including their significance and effect on the budget deficit.
- Review key industries and sectors of growth, as well as South Africa's role as the gateway to Africa.
This briefing will be of particular interest to potential investors of South African markets. Businesses within South Africa will also gain a greater understanding of government investment planned for the next five years and how this will impact the economy.
