Bronwyn Williams & Chris Hattingh | The Small Print
In this episode, Bronwyn speaks to the CRA’s Head of Policy Analysis, Chris Hatting, about South Africa’s 2023 budget speech. They discuss the increasing costs of debt-servicing South Africa’s SOEs, the difficulty of accessing international investments after South Africa’s greylisting, the impact of global “greening” initiatives on South Africa’s export industry, the withering away of South Africa’s tax base, and how the growing reliance on social welfare programs is destabilising South Africa’s social contract.
Bronwyn Williams is a futurist, economist, trend analyst and host of The Small Print. Her day job as a partner at Flux Trends involves helping business leaders to use foresight to design the future they want to live and work in. You may have seen her talking about Transhumanism or Tikok on Carte Blanche, or heard her talking about trends on 702 or CNBC Africa where she is a regular expert commentator. When she's not talking to brands and businesses about the future, you will probably find her curled up somewhere with a (preferably paperback) book. She tweets at @bronwynwilliams.
Chris Hattingh is Head of Policy Analysis at the Centre For Risk Analysis (CRA). Chris has a special interest in trade and economic policy and is a member of the advisory council of the Initiative for African Trade and Prosperity, as well as a Senior Fellow at African Liberty. He holds an MPhil degree from Stellenbosch University.
