Policy uncertainty looms large
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 economic decision-makers are uncertain about the consequences of government policy. Research shows that it causes investment to be delayed and dampens economic growth. Unfortunately, there are weekly examples of policy uncertainty in South Africa.
