Our economy is today three times larger than it was 30 years ago.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, when comparing South Africa\u2019s economic growth rate with its African peers, the country\u2019s performance becomes far less impressive.<\/p>\n<p>In 2010, South Africa\u2019s GDP was $417.36 billion according to the World Bank. By the end of 2024, the country\u2019s economy was smaller at $401.14 billion. This marks a <b>decline of 3.89%<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>From these figures, it appears as though South Africa\u2019s decade of stagnation has extended into 15 years of flat economic growth.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast, over the same period, Zimbabwe\u2019s economy has more than tripled from $12.05 billion to $41.54 billion. This signifies <b>growth of over 244%<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>This is despite the country being considered an economic basket case after it entered a decades-long downward economic spiral in 2000, following the government\u2019s controversial land reform programme.<\/p>\n<p>Zimbabwe\u2019s expropriation of white-owned farms was followed by involvement in a war in the Democratic Republic of Congo. This collapsed the state\u2019s finances and led to international sanctions against the country.<\/p>\n<p>Inflation skyrocketed, reaching a peak of 231 million per cent in 2008, rendering the Zimbabwean dollar essentially worthless.<\/p>\n<p>Basic necessities became scarce, leading to widespread poverty and hunger. This economic meltdown continues to cast a long shadow over Zimbabwe\u2019s present and future.<\/p>\n<p>Despite this, the Zimbabwean economy has grown much more strongly than South Africa\u2019s over the past 15 years, indicating how poorly the local economy has performed.<\/p>\n<p><b>South Africa\u2019s economic stagnation<\/b><\/p>\n<p>There are many reasons why South Africa\u2019s economy has stagnated over the past 15 years, with the main contributors being widespread corruption, load-shedding, deteriorating infrastructure, and inefficient ports and railways.<\/p>\n<p>More recently, this has culminated in private businesses losing confidence in the local economy, leading to declining fixed investment.<\/p>\n<p>This type of investment is key to sustained economic growth over the long run, as it improves the workforce\u2019s productivity.<\/p>\n<p>Fixed investment refers to capital used to purchase land, equipment, machinery, and build infrastructure, as opposed to financial assets and consumption.<\/p>\n<p>South Africa\u2019s fixed investment, typically measured as gross fixed capital formation, has declined from around 30% in the 1970s to 15% today.<\/p>\n<p>This has translated into poor economic growth, with fixed investment hovering around 15% for the past 15 years after the boom that preceded the 2010 FIFA World Cup.<\/p>\n<p>Investec Wealth &amp; Investment International investment strategist Osagyefo Mazwai pointed to this as the main reason the country\u2019s economic growth has lagged that of its peers.<\/p>\n<p>Had South Africa merely maintained the emerging market average of 4.5% since 2010, its economy would be around R4.1 trillion larger.<\/p>\n<p>However, while South Africa\u2019s emerging-market peers have fixed investment rates of around 25% of GDP, its share is only 15%.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur fundamental proposition is that South Africa needs to get back to business, and by that, we mean get back to the basics of business confidence,\u201d Mazwai said.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that the cheapest form of economic stimulus is the restoration of confidence, as that directly translates into increased investment and job creation.<\/p>\n<p>This has been the case in South Africa\u2019s past, with a high correlation between business confidence and various economic indicators since 1994.<\/p>\n<p>Mazwai explained that this is not a one-way street, as business confidence is both a driver and a result of GDP growth. Improved confidence and growth create a powerful feedback loop.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe key is that business confidence should be the main focus of the current government when solving for economic and employment growth, in turn solving for the poverty, unemployment and inequality problem in South Africa,\u201d Mazwai said.<\/p>\n<p>The direct impact of this is that South Africa\u2019s fixed investment rate in comparison is much lower than its peers.
