Brief note intended as a more regular interface with our clients. The emphasis is to provide our interpretation of important economic events, such as South African Reserve Bank interest rate statements, and key data releases, including GDP growth figures.
This presentation-style note summarises the third quarter business survey results. While business confidence recovered partially, business conditions remained tough and underlying results signal very weak effective demand. The results are consistent with annual average GDP growth of below 1% for this year.
