Yesterday our economist David Metelerkamp presented an overview of the implications of the 2017/18 Budget Speech, as well as Industry Insight’s official forecasts. As a stakeholder in the construction industry in South Africa, you would know that infrastructure spending by government and SOE’s is one of the most important leading indicators for the construction sector as a whole, especially the civil environment. In the presentation, the general outlook for the global and local economy are discussed, which are important drivers of the construction sector, as it is becoming increasingly important t understand the environment in which we do business in.
A general state of the civil and building industries are respectively touched on before we delve into the finer details of infrastructure spending in each category as well as our general outlook for each sector. Please find the link below for the presentation, and thank you to all our clients that attended.
