SUMMARY:Economic Outlook 2020
DESCRIPTION:Moody’s recent shift to a negative outlook for the sovereign rating places the economy on a knife-edge. The ramifications are being felt broadly across the country\, with confidence indicators hitting all-time lows. The timeline is tight. Will South Africa slip over the precipice\, be downgraded to junk status and face an investor sell-off as we lose our place in the FTSE World Government Bond Index? Or will government find the political will to tackle the public sector wage bill\, weakening SOEs and a looming national debt trap? \nWe are yet again at a crossroad. Will it be the high road or the low road? Join Gina Schoeman and an esteemed panel of experts as we unpack South Africa’s economic prospects for 2020. \nThis conference will unpack the following issues: \n\nSocio-economic South Africa: Voter turnout\, increasing frustration and demographics;\nPolitics: Why 2020 is a make or break for Ramaphosa\nStructural reform: The search for a capable state\nLabour: What’s to come of trade unions?\nMacroeconomics: The real problem with GDP is a nominal one\nMonetary Policy: Why so hawkish?\nFiscal Policy: Realism at a cost\nPrescribed assets: Brace yourselves\nSovereign ratings outlook: Feeling Moody.\n\nVenue: To be confirmed\, Johannesburg\, South Africa \nDate: 20 February 2020 \nTime: Whole day event \nBook at: https://www.gibs.co.za/programmes/Pages/Form/Form.aspx?ProgrammeCode=19CON367 \nEmail: Boxallb@gibs.co.za \nTel: +27 11 771 4318 \nWebsite: https://www.gibs.co.za/news-events/events/open-programmes/pages/economic-outlook-2020.aspx \n
