In times of economic uncertainty, manage your risk with PPS Short-Term Insurance

 

 

One thing that is prevalent in South Africa, is the influx of uncertainties in the country. For instance, will there be another ratings downgrade, will we load-shed this winter, will the Rand prevail amidst all this activity, and what will the effect be on consumers and businesses alike?

 

Amidst such uncertainties, one must be prudent to ensure that they manage their risk and that assets are safeguarded to prevent any potential consequences that could affect their life, business and general well-being.

 

 

Tough economic times ahead for South Africa

 

According to a publication by Focus Economics; South Africa is slowly recovering from a short recession last year, and the economy has been on the mend. Despite this, however, several potential setbacks continue to threaten its further recovery, and lacklustre growth is expected to persist this year. For instance, in the aftermath of the upcoming general elections, policy uncertainty could hinder the country’s short-term economic recovery.1

 

Analysts and economists at PwC hold the view that the country will likely see another interest rate hike this year, warning that local volatility and economic growth concerns prevail.2 In addition, research shows that while greater political stability has been observed under President Cyril Ramaphosa, constrained growth remains.3

 

We cannot be certain of just what the future holds for South Africa; however, one thing graduate professionals can be certain of, is that they can safeguard against risk to their assets.
