SOUTH AFRICA - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
South Africa is a middle-income, emerging market with an
abundant supply of natural resources; well-developed financial, legal,
communications, energy, and transport sectors and a stock exchange that is the
15th largest in the world. Even though the country possesses modern
infrastructure that support a relatively efficient distribution of goods to
major urban centers throughout the region, some components retard growth. The
economy began to slow in the second half of 2007 due to an electricity crisis.
State power supplier Eskom encountered problems with aging plants and meeting
electricity demand necessitating "load-shedding" cuts in 2007 and
2008 to residents and businesses in the major cities. Subsequently, the global
financial crisis reduced commodity prices and world demand. GDP fell nearly 2%
in 2009 but has recovered since then. Unemployment, poverty, and inequality
remain a challenge, with official unemployment at nearly 25% of the work force.
State power supplier Eskom has built two new power stations and installed new
power demand management programs to improve power grid reliability. South
Africa's economic policy has focused on controlling inflation, however, the
country has had significant budget deficits that restrict its ability to deal
with pressing economic problems. The current government faces growing pressure
from special interest groups to use state-owned enterprises to deliver basic
services to low-income areas and to increase job growth.
