Policy uncertainty decreased in Q4
from Die ekonomie minuut · host Waldo Krugell
Risk can be measured and managed, but when a situation is unique, and the outcome of events is unpredictable, it causes uncertainty. Policy uncertainty is when there is uncertainty about government policy or of its consequences. Research shows that this causes investment to be delayed and it dampens economic growth. Unfortunately, there are weekly examples of policy uncertainty in South Africa, but luckily there is also an index that measures this.
