ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
7
Global Economic Context
The global economy grew by 3.4% in 2014. South Africa’s main trading
partners have experienced divergent economic growth:
 The European Union grew by just 0.9% while Japan shrunk by
0.1%.
 However, Sub-Saharan Africa grew by 5% and the United States
grew by a robust 2.4%. China’s economy continues to slow with
growth moderating to a still impressive 7.4%.
Commodity prices of Iron-ore, Coal, Platinum and Oil are still well
below their 2008 highs.
The substantial drop in the international Oil price has brought benefits
for South Africa but may lead to a slowing of growth in oil-producing
African countries which have become key trading partners for SA
manufactured exports.
8
Domestic Economic Context
The South African economy grew by 1.5% in 2014.
 Agriculture grew by 5.6% and Services grew by 2.1%.
 Mining however shrunk by 1.6% and Manufacturing was flat.
The weaker Mining and Manufacturing growth performance was
primarily due to the lengthy Platinum and Metal sector strikes in the
first half of 2014. In the second half of 2014, electricity shortages
constrained Manufacturing output substantially.
The SA economy would have grown by approximately 2.2% – 2.7% in
2014 were it not for the labour and electricity stoppages.
Amongst the BRICS countries, SA grew faster than both Brazil (0.1%)
and Russia (0.6%).

Trade
 Exports of South African goods continues to grow albeit at a
slower pace than imports.
 SA exports of mineral commodities have slowed due to lower
international prices.
 Trade balance has worsened as global demand has remained
relatively weak. Need for trade protection remains high.

STRATEGIC RISKS
Strategic risks that would impede the achievement of strategic objectives
impacting on the dti include, but not limited to:
•
•
•
•
negative impact of the downturn in the global economic environment on
South Africa's economic growth and employment potential caused by stalled
global economic recovery;
demand for South African exports, international investors response to
changes to quantitative easing leading to currency volatility;
the inability to be competitive and domestic shocks to the economy due to
administered prices (electricity, water and port charges), transport, energy
and logistic constraints, skills for the economy, monopolistic pricing of
privately owned key intermediate inputs; and
Due to previous negative press reports on governance issues around the
department's entities, there is the potential for reputational risk due to actions
of the entities.
STRATEGIC RISKS
These risks are being adequately managed through, but not limited to,
the following mitigating actions:
•
•
•
•
•
early warning system- economic intelligence reporting;
the prioritisation of African continent as major source of demand (more
foreign representatives, more trade missions going to Africa);
energy efficiency programmes (clean audits) and research studies for
alternate energy sources as well as participation in the electricity war room;
skills development programmes for the country; and
regular engagements with entity/management of entities and collective
bargaining pilot programme for entities.
