The BER considered three alternative scenarios for the SA economy over the period 2012 to 2025. The baseline scenario provides for GDP growth to revert back to the long-term average of about 3½% between 2012/25. The low-road entails a domestic economic performance that reflects both weaker international economic conditions and a decidedly less supportive domestic political and associated fiscal policy condition. The high-road scenario is characterised by both relatively improved international economic conditions and a notably better domestic political and economic policy content, resulting in substantially improved private sector confidence levels (and thus) fixed investment performance.
