1. OVERVIEW OF GLOBAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTS

In its World Economic Outlook (WEO), April 2018 Update, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) highlights that the global economic upswing that began around mid-2016 has become broader and stronger. The IMF projects that advanced economies as a group will continue to expand above their potential growth rates this year and 2019 before decelerating, while growth in emerging market and developing economies will rise before levelling off. For most countries, current favourable growth rates will not last. Policymakers should seize this opportunity to bolster growth, make it more durable, and equip their governments better to counter the next downturn. At 3.8 per cent, global growth in 2017 was the fastest since 2011. With financial conditions still supportive, global growth is expected to tick up to a 3.9 per cent rate in both 2018 and 2019 (IMF WEO, April 2018).

According to the IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde, the world economy must avoid being drawn into a protectionist spiral that will undermine the momentum of global growth. In a speech in Hong Kong, on 11 April 2018, Lagarde highlighted that top priorities for the global economy are to avoid protectionism, guard against financial risk and foster long-term growth. The IMF remains optimistic about global growth prospects. The world economy is benefiting from surging investment, rebounding trade and favourable financial conditions, all of which are encouraging companies and households to step up spending (IMF.org - News, 16 April 2018).

The oil price remained elevated since the start of 2018, hovering around the $70/bbl level for the third time in 2018. While reports suggested a volatile and falling oil price in February, there has been a marked shift in March, with the price up by more than 9.5 per cent in April 2018. Lately there have been indications that Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and Russia are contemplating extending the production cuts and the Saudi crown prince has indicated that OPEC and Russia could consider a 10 to 20 year oil alliance, according

to Reuters and Bloomberg.

World oil demand growth for 2017 was adjusted higher by around US$30 trillion to 1.65 million barrels per day (mb/d), mainly to account for up-to-date data in both Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and non-OECD regions. Total world oil demand is now pegged at 97.07 mb/d for the year. Similarly, world oil demand growth in 2018 was revised higher by 30 trillion barrels per day, compared to last month’s report, to now stand at 1.63 mb/d. This mainly reflects the positive momentum in the OECD in the first quarter of 2018 on the back of better-than-expected data, and supported by development in industrial activities, colder-than-anticipated weather and strong mining activities in the OECD Americas and the OECD Asia Pacific (www.opec.org, 18 April 2018).

The JP Morgan Global Manufacturing Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) indicates that economic growth slowed to a 16-month low, posting 54.3 index points in March 2018 from 54.8 index points in February 2018. The slowdown in March 2018 reflected a general easing in rates of expansion across much of the global economy. On a sector basis, growth of manufacturing production eased to an eight-month low and service sector business activity rose to the weakest extent in almost a year-and-a-half. March 2018 saw the pace of global economic expansion ease to a 16-month low, following tandem slowdowns in the manufacturing and service sectors (Markit Economics, 17 April 2018).

Firms responded by raising employment, with jobs growth registered for the ninety-seventh straight month. Staffing levels were increased in most of the nations covered by the survey, the exceptions being a mild decrease in China and the steepest reduction in Brazil since August 2017. The US, Japan, Spain and Australia all registered faster increases than in 2018. Price pressures moderated in March 2018, with rates of increase in costs and output charges slowing. Inflation for both price measures remained sharper (on average) in developed nations compared to emerging markets (Markit Economics, 17 April 2018).

2. RECENT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTS FOR SELECTED ECONOMIES

The United States: The US economy expanded by an annualised 2.9 per cent quarter-on-quarter in the last three months of 2017, higher than 2.5 per cent in the second estimate and beating market expectations of 2.7 per cent. Personal consumption expenditures and private inventory investment were revised upward. For the year 2017, the economy expanded by 2.3 per cent, higher than 1.5 per cent in 2016 and in line with the previous estimates (US Bureau of Economic Analysis, 28 March 2018).

According to minutes of the Federal Open Market Committee’s (FOMC) held on March 2018 the Fed remained hawkish, as it raised the target range for the federal funds rate by a quarter point to 1.5-1.75 per cent. The Fed officials also projected a steeper path of hikes in 2019 and 2020 as the economic outlook improved. The Federal Reserve also mentioned the prospect of retaliatory trade actions by other countries as well as other issues and uncertainties associated with trade policies as downside risks for the economy. Overall, the minutes remained upbeat about the economy, and policymakers expected inflation to rise in coming months (US Federal Reserve, 11 April 2018).

Consumer prices increased by 2.4 per cent year-on-year in March 2018, above the 2.2 per cent recorded in February 2018 and matching market expectations. It was the highest inflation rate in a year, mainly boosted by shelter and used car prices. On a monthly basis, prices fell by 0.1 per cent after a 0.2 per cent rise and compared with forecasts of a flat reading. Gasoline prices went down by 4.9 per cent, the largest drop since May 2017. The unemployment rate stood at a 17-year low of 4.1 per cent for the sixth consecutive month in March 2018, slightly above market expectations of 4 per cent. The number of unemployed decreased by 121 000 to 6.59 million and employment fell by 37 000 to 155.18 million (US Bureau of Labour Statistics, 11 April 2018).

In the Eurozone: The Eurozone economy expanded by 0.6 per cent quarter-on-quarter in the three months to December 2017, in line with the second estimate and following a 0.7 per cent advance in the previous period. Growth was mainly driven by exports and fixed investment while household consumption increased at a softer pace. Among Eurozone’s largest economies, GDP growth eased slightly in Germany and Italy, and was unchanged in Spain and picked up in France (Eurostat, 7 March 2018).

The European Central Bank (ECB) held its benchmark-refinancing rate at 0 per cent on 8 March 2018 as expected, and reaffirmed that the net asset purchases are intended to run at a monthly pace of €30 billion until the end of September 2018, or beyond, if necessary. The deposit facility rate and the marginal lending facility rate were kept at -0.4 per cent and 0.25 per cent, respectively. Furthermore, the ECB dropped its commitment to increase the size of its Quantitative Easing (QE) programme by removing the easing bias from its monetary policy message (European Central bank, 8 March 2018).

Eurozone consumer price inflation came in at 1.3 per cent year-on-year in March 2018, slightly below the preliminary estimate of 1.4 per cent and compared with 1.1 per cent reported in the previous month. Prices of food, alcohol & tobacco rose less than initially thought. Annual core inflation, which excludes volatile prices of energy, food, alcohol and tobacco and at which the ECB looks at in its policy decisions, was confirmed at 1 per cent in March 2018, the same rate recorded in the previous month. The unemployment rate in the Eurozone edged down to 8.5 per cent in February 2018 from 8.6 per cent in January 2018 and matching market expectations. It was the lowest jobless rate since December 2008, well below the 9.5 per cent recorderd a year earlier (Eurostat, 4 April 2018).

The United Kingdom: The British economy grew by 0.4 per cent quarter-on-quarter in the three months to December 2017, unrevised from the second estimate and following a 0.5

9Central Bank of Swaziland Quarterly Review - March 2018

per cent expansion in the previous period. Fixed investment increased firmly despite a slowdown in business investment, while net trade contributed negatively to growth (UK Office for National Statistics, 29 March 2018).

The Bank of England (BOE) voted to keep the bank rate at 0.5 per cent on 22 March 2018, highlighting that pay growth is likely to pick up in response to the tightening labour market and inflation is expected to remain above the 2 per cent target in the short term. Furthermore, the BOE reiterated that an ongoing tightening of monetary policy over the forecast period would be appropriate to return inflation sustainably to its target (Bank of England, 22 March 2018).

The rate of inflation in the UK fell to 2.5 per cent in March 2018 from 2.7 per cent in the previous month and below market expectations of 2.7 per cent. It was the lowest rate since March 2017. Year-on-year, prices rose at a slower pace for housing, water, electricity, gas and other (UK Office for National Statistics, 25 April 2018). Japan: The Japanese economy advanced by 0.4 per cent quarter-on-quarter in the three months to December 2017, much stronger than the preliminary estimate of a 0.1 per cent expansion and after a 0.6 per cent growth in the prior quarter. It was the eighth straight quarter of expansion, due to strong private consumption and an upward revision of business spending and inventories. On an annualised basis, the economy grew by 1.6 per cent, much faster than the preliminary estimate of a 0.5 per cent expansion and beating expectations of a 0.9 per cent growth (Japan Cabinet Office, 8 March 2018).

The Bank of Japan left its key short-term interest rate unchanged at -0.1 per cent at its March 2018 meeting, as expected. Policymakers also kept its 10-year government bond yield target around zero per cent and maintained its upbeat economic view ahead of new term for Governor Haruhiko Kuroda. The Bank will continue with Quantitative and Qualitative Monetary Easing (QQE) with a

Negative Interest Rate, aiming to achieve the price stability target of 2 per cent, as long as it is necessary for maintaining that target in a stable manner (Bank of Japan, 9 March 2018).Consumer prices in Japan rose by 1.1 year-on-year in March 2018, after a 1.5 per cent gain in the prior month and matching market consensus. This was the lowest inflation rate since December 2017, mainly due to a marked slowdown in cost of food (Statistics Japan, 23 March 2018).

Brazil: The Brazilian economy advanced by 0.1 per cent quarter-on-quarter in the last three months of 2017, following a 0.2 per cent expansion in the previous period. Considering the full year of 2017, the economy expanded by 1 per cent, following a 3.5 per cent contraction in both 2015 and 2016 (Trading Economics, 1 March 2018).

The Central Bank of Brazil (CBB) cut its key Selic rate by 25 basis points (bps) to 6.50 per cent on 21 March 2018 following a 25-bps cut on 7 February 2018. The cut, widely anticipated and unanimous, was the eleventh straight cut, bringing borrowing costs to the lowest level in modern Brazilian history amid below-target inflation and a gradually improving economy. Regarding the next meeting, policymakers were of the view that an additional moderate monetary easing would be appropriate. The Committee is of the view that the additional stimulus will mitigate the risk of delayed convergence of inflation toward the desired targets (Central Bank of Brazil, 21 March 2018).

Consumer prices in Brazil increased by 2.68 per cent year-on-year in March 2018, below 2.84 per cent in February 2018 and compared to market expectations of 2.71 per cent. It was the lowest inflation rate since September 2017, remaining below the CBB’s target of 4.5 per cent. The unemployment rate increased to 12.6 per cent in the three months to February 2018, above 12 per cent in the September-November 2017 period and market expectations of 12.5 per cent (Trading Economics, 10 April 2018).

Russia: Russia’s GDP contracted by 0.38 per cent in the fourth quarter of 2017 following a 0.85 per cent expansion in the third quarter.

10 Central Bank of Swaziland Quarterly Review - March 2018

(Russia Federal State Statistics Service, 17 April 2018). The Bank of Russia lowered its benchmark one-week repo rate by 25 basis points to 7.25 per cent on 23 March, marking the fifth consecutive cut, as inflation remained sustainably low. The Bank highlighted that it will continue to reduce the key rate in order to complete the transition to neutral monetary policy this year, as annual inflation is expected to be between 3-4 per cent in late 2018 and to remain close to 4 per cent in 2019 (Central Bank of Russia, 23 March 2018).

Russia’s consumer price inflation increased by 2.4 per cent year-on-year in March 2018 from a record low of 2.2 per cent in the previous month and in line with market expectations. Within the goods component, food inflation picked up to 1.3 per cent from 0.9 per cent in the previous month: Prices of non-food products rose by 2.4 per cent, softer than a 2.5 per cent gain in February 2018. At this level, inflation remained well below the Bank’s target of 4 per cent (Federal State Statistics Service of Russia, 6 April 2018).

India: Real GDP in India expanded by 1.80 per cent in the fourth quarter of 2017, unchanged from the previous quarter. A rebound in investment and inventories offset a slowdown in both private and public spending (Trading Economics, 27 March 2018). The Reserve Bank of India left its key policy rate steady at 6 per cent for the fourth time on 5 April 2018, matching market expectations. Policymakers said, once again the decision is consistent with the neutral stance of monetary policy aiming to achieve the medium-term inflation target of 4 per cent, while supporting growth. The Bank lowered inflation forecasts to 4.5 per cent for Q4-2017 of the 2017/2018 fiscal year (January to March 2018) from 5.1 per cent. GDP growth for 2018-19 is projected higher at 7.4 per cent from 6.6 per cent in 2017-2018 (Reserve Bank of India, 5 April 2018) Consumer prices in India increased by 4.28 per cent year-on-year in March 2018, following a 4.44 per cent increase in February 2018 and

compared with market expectations of 4.2 per cent. It is the lowest inflation rate in five months amid a slowdown in food costs (Trading Economics, 12 April 2018).

China: China’s GDP grew by 1.4 per cent quarter-on-quarter in the three months to March 2018, compared to an advance estimate of 1.6 per cent in the previous period and slightly below market expectations of 1.5 per cent. It was the weakest pace of expansion since the first quarter of 2016. The economy advanced by 6.8 per cent year-on-year in the March 2018, the same pace as in the previous two quarters and matching consensus. For 2018, the Chinese government targets growth at around 6.5 per cent amid efforts to deleverage, contain debt and financial risks. In 2017, the economy expanded by 6.9 per cent, beating the government target of around 6.5 per cent and following a 26-year low of 6.7 per cent in 2016 (China National Bureau of Statistics, 17 April 2018).

On 22 March 2018, the People’s Bank of China raised interest rates for open market operations by 5 basis points, following the US Federal Reserve’s decision to tighten monetary policy. This was the first rise for repo this year following the appointment of Yi Gang as China’s new central bank governor. The rate for the 7-day reverse repurchase agreements was raised to 2.55 per cent from 2.50 per cent. The adjustment will help the market to shape reasonable interest rate expectations, and is a normal response to the US Fed’s rate hike (Trading Economics, 17 April 2018).

Consumer price inflation fell by 2.1 per cent year-on-year in March 2018 from a four-and-a-half-year high of 2.9 per cent in the previous month and below market consensus of 2.6 per cent. Costs increased at a softer pace for both food and non-food products. On a monthly basis, consumer prices declined by 1.1 per cent in March 2018, following a 1.2 per cent rise in February 2018 and way above market expectations of a 0.5 per cent fall. It was the first monthly drop since 2018 (Statistics China, 11 April 2018).

3. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTS IN SOUTH AFRICA

The South African economy ended 2017 in a better shape than most expected. Real GDP grew by a seasonally adjusted and annualised 3.1 per cent quarter-on-quarter in Q4 of 2017, compared with a 2.3 per cent advance in Q3 of 2017. This acceleration helped push GDP growth for 2017 as a whole to 1.3 per cent from a 0.6 per cent advance in 2016. Much of this was the result of the strong rebound in agriculture throughout 2017, brought about by good summer rains, which helped produce a record field crop. Furthermore, a much higher horticultural production and a recovery in animal farming contributed to GDP growth in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Excluding agriculture, the underlying pace of economic activity remained relatively weak, expanding by a modest 0.9 per cent. Moderate growth was recorded in mining, finance, transport and communications as well as personal services over 2017 as a whole. While manufacturing and domestic trade (particularly retail sales) picked up significant pace towards year-end, it was insufficient

to compensate for the weakness in previous quarters. Consequently, value added by manufacturing and domestic trade declined by 0.2 per cent and 0.6 per cent respectively in 2017. Construction activity remained depressed throughout the year, contracting by 0.3 per cent in 2017.

There is not enough data available to draw any meaningful conclusions on the economy’s performance in early 2018. In January 2018, production and sales in most major industries expanded further, but at a slower pace than was the case towards the end of last year. However, trading conditions in the markets for wholesale trade, new vehicles and buildings deteriorated in January and February 2018.

Economic growth forecast to improve, but downside risks have increased somewhat in recent weeks. On the upside, the new political leadership continues to make good progress in its drive to root out corruption, restore fiscal discipline and reform State Owned Enterprises (SOEs). This has to be well managed in order to avoid the dreaded credit rating downgrade by Moody’s and to ensure South Africa’s place in Citi’s World Government Index, thereby removing the cloud of large-scale forced

12 Central Bank of Swaziland Quarterly Review - March 2018

government bond sales that have hovered over the value of the Rand since late 2015.

On the downside, there is the government’s approach to land reform that has taken a dangerous turn, compromising a Constitution revered the world over, threatening private property rights and fuelling social tensions. To make matters worse, rather than leading the drive for accelerated land reform through considered policies based on international best practice, the Ramaphosa administration appears to have been pushed into this populist corner by the more reckless factions within their own party and the radical left opposition. Social tensions and expectations may intensify

and escalate as the rhetoric of politicians tend to become more populist and divisive in the run up to general elections in 2019. Some jitters and concerns are therefore expected to return later this year. Sentiment is for progress to be relatively slow regarding reforms ahead of the elections and therefore still expect only moderately faster growth over the next three years (Statistics South Africa, 5 April 2018).

The South African Reserve Bank’s (SARB) revised its growth forecast for 2018 higher to 1.7 per cent from 1.4 per cent previously, but lower for 2019 to 1.5 per cent from 1.6 previously. GDP growth for 2020 is forecast at 2 per cent.

The South African Reserve Bank cut its benchmark repo rate by 25 basis points to 6.5 per cent on 18 March 2018, in line with market expectations, mentioning lower inflation expectations. The Committee added that the upside inflationary pressure from the increase in the VAT rate will be offset by the stronger exchange rate. The repo rate reduction has taken the Commercial Bank’s prime rate to 10 per cent.

The SARB sees headline inflation unchanged at 4.9 per cent in 2018, and better at 5.2 per

cent in 2019 (previous 5.4 per cent). The SARB indicated that the risks to the inflation outlook are now balanced, compared to the upside risks highlighted in January 2018. The SARB’s Quartely Projection Model now generates an endogenous interest rate path, showing one interest rate hike of 25bps (vs two hikes previously) over the next two years (South Africa Reserve Bank, 28 March 2018).

The Rand ended marginally weaker in March 2018, hurt initially by a spike in risk aversion, triggered by growing concerns of a potential

13Central Bank of Swaziland Quarterly Review - March 2018

trade war between the US and China. Later however, the Rand was helped by Moody’s confirming SA’s investment grade ratings and as fears of global trade wars faded somewhat on reports of renewed talks between the US and China (SA Nedbank CIB Market Commentary, April 2018).

Consumer prices in South Africa rose by 3.8 per cent year-on-year in March 2018, slowing from a 4.0 per cent gain in the previous month and below market consensus of a 4.1 per cent increase. It was the lowest inflation rate since February 2011, mostly due to lower prices of food and non-alcoholic beverages and transport. Annual core inflation rate,

which excludes cost of food, non-alcoholic beverages, petrol and energy, was unchanged at 4.1 per cent in March 2018, below market expectations of 4.3 per cent. Compared to February, core consumer prices went up 0.7 per cent, easing from a 1.1 per cent increase previously (Statistics South Africa, 18 April 2018).

South Africa’s unemployment rate decreased to 26.7 per cent in the fourth quarter of 2017 from 27.7 per cent in the previous period. The number of unemployed fell by 330 000 to 5.88 million and the number of employed declined by 21 000 to 16.17 million (Statistics South Africa, 18 April 2018).

4. DOMESTIC ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTS

4.1. General Overview

4.1.1. HeadlineInflationAccording to the Central Statistics Office, price developments were broadly favourable in the opening months of 2018 mainly backed by continuous moderation in food prices and a relatively stronger Lilangeni/Rand exchange rate against major trading currencies. The overall consumer inflation slowed to 4.2 per

cent in the first quarter of 2018 from 5.0 per cent in the last quarter of 2017. Food inflation recorded a low of 0.9 per cent in March 2018 and averaged 1.5 per cent in the first quarter of 2018 compared to 3.5 per cent in the previous quarter. Slower increases were mainly observed in the prices of ‘bread and cereals’, ‘vegetables’, ‘fruits’ and ‘sugar confectionary products’. Favourable weather conditions in 2016/17 and 2017/18 planting seasons led to a good harvest in 2017 which supported a recovery in food supply and resulted in a strong moderation in food prices.

14 Central Bank of Swaziland Quarterly Review - March 2018

Demand side inflationary pressures were also modest with prices of selected semi-durable and durable products depicting a downward trend. The price index for ‘clothing and footwear’ recorded a deflation of 2.2 per cent in the quarter ended March 2018 following another deflation of 0.6 per cent in the quarter ended December 2017. On the other hand, the index for ‘furnishing and household equipment’ grew at a slower rate of 2.3 per cent in the quarter under review compared to 4.3 per cent in the previous quarter. In addition, the growth rate of the index for ‘recreation and culture’ decreased by 2.0 percentage points to 4.2 per cent in the quarter under review.

The above decreases were partially counteracted by increases in the price indices for ‘education’, ‘health’ and ‘restaurants and hotels’. The index for ‘education’ rose by 7.7 per cent in the quarter ended March

2018 compared to 7.4 per cent in the previous quarter mainly driven by a 0.6 of a percentage point increase in fees for secondary education. The index for ‘health’ and ‘restaurants and hotels’ grew by 0.4 and 0.3 of a percentage point, respectively.

Core inflation which is CPI excluding food and non-alcoholic beverages, fuel and energy decreased from 5.4 per cent in the fourth quarter to 5.2 per cent in the first quarter of 2018. This depicts that underlying inflationary pressures remain modest. The CPI for administered prices (which includes regulated prices such as bread, fuel, public transport, energy and water) was also lower at 3.7 per cent in the quarter under review compared to 4.5 per cent in the previous quarter. This was mainly due to a 40 cent per litre decrease in the price of fuel effected during the quarter under review.

15Central Bank of Swaziland Quarterly Review - March 2018

The outlook for consumer inflation is broadly on the downside mainly due to contained food prices and the relatively stronger Lilangeni/Rand exchange rate against major trading currencies which has benefitted from positive political developments in South Africa that have slightly lifted investment sentiments in that country. The stronger Lilangeni is expected to counteract negative effects of the slightly rising international oil prices which in turn will curtail increases on domestic fuel prices. However, inflationary pressures are imminent from tax increases and administered prices. Fiscal developments reflect that Value Added Tax (VAT) rate is expected to increase by a percentage point to 15 per cent in alignment with developments in South Africa. On administered prices, electricity tariffs increased by 15 per cent in April 2018 as per the multi-year tariff approved by the Swaziland Energy Regulatory Authority (SERA) the previous year. Water tariffs, on the other hand, are expected to increase by 13.7 per cent if the proposed increase of this magnitude is approved by parliament. Overall consumer inflation is expected to average 5.4 per cent in 2018 before rising to 6.1 and 6.4 per cent in 2019 and 2020, respectively.

4.1.2 Electricity ConsumptionFigures obtained from the Swaziland Electricity Company (SEC) indicated that total electricity sales volumes accelerated by 6.2 per cent to 299.8 GWh in the quarter ended March 2018 compared to 282.5 GWh in the quarter ended December 2017. All the different categories recorded increases during the quarter under review. Domestic and commercial electricity sales volumes grew by 0.9 and 3.1 per cent, respectively during the quarter ended March 2018. Electricity sales from the ‘irrigation power and bulk’ category, which dominates total sales volumes by more than 50 per cent, grew by 10.0 per cent during the quarter. The total number of electricity customers grew by 2.1 per cent to 203,584 in the quarter ended March 2018 from 199,375 in the previous quarter. All the categories recorded positive growth during the quarter under review.

4.1.3 Water ConsumptionFigures sourced from the Swaziland Water Services Corporation indicated a marginal 0.1 per cent growth in total consumption for treated water from 3.012 million kilolitres in the quarter ended December 2017 to 3.015 million kilolitres in the quarter ended March 2018. The sales volumes for residential use rose by 2.5 per cent to 1.642 million kilolitres in the quarter ended March 2018, from 1.602 million kilolitres in the previous quarter. This increase continue to reflect a re-classification of customers from the government bulk meters to individual residential meters. Evidently, commercial sales volumes continued on a downward trend, declining by 2.6 per cent to 1.373 million kilolitres in the quarter ended March 2018 from 1.410 million kilolitres in the previous quarter. During the drought period, the water corporation reported that they lost a number of businesses to boreholes in the Matsapha industrial site which continues to affect commercial sales volumes. The total number of treated water connections grew by 1.5 per cent to 42,997 in the quarter ended March 2018 from 42,345 in the quarter ended December 2017. Both domestic and commercial customers observed increases during the quarter under review, increasing by 1.6 and 0.9 per cent, respectively. The flat growth in consumption volumes reflect that economic activity remain muted in some parts of the manufacturing sector in the period under review.

4.1.4 Fuel ImportsAccording to the Ministry of Natural Resources, Energy Department, total fuel import volumes slowed by 10.3 per cent to 78,953 kilolitres in the quarter ended March 2018 from 88,032 kilolitres recorded in the quarter ended December 2017. Both petrol and diesel import volumes recorded declines indicating a deceleration in economic activity in the transportation sector, while paraffin import volumes recorded a significant increase during the quarter under review. Petrol import volumes declined by 7.5 per cent to 39,678 kilolitres in the quarter ended March 2018 from

16 Central Bank of Swaziland Quarterly Review - March 2018

42,916 in the quarter ended December 2017. Diesel import volumes which often captures industrial activity, also declined by 13.7 per cent to 38,092 kilolitres from 44,151 kilolitres, during the quarter under review. Paraffin import volumes on the other hand significantly grew by 22 per cent to 1,183 kilolitres in the quarter ended March 2018, compared to 965 kilolitres in the quarter ended December 2017.

4.1.5 Exchange Rate/Real Effective Exchange Rate

During the first quarter of 2018, the external value of the Lilangeni/Rand showed great recovery from the position it was in the last quarter of 2017 as it further strengthened against major currencies. The recovery saw the Lilangeni/Rand trade below E12.00 per US Dollar for the first time in three years during the quarter under review. The local unit benefitted from political and economic developments in South Africa that boosted the performance of the Rand compared to developments that took place in the quarter ended December 2017. During the period under review, the Lilangeni appreciated by 12.5 per cent and averaged E11.95 against the US Dollar. Against the Pound Sterling, the local unit appreciated by 8.1 per cent to an average

of E16.66, while it appreciated by 8.6 per cent to an average of E14.69 against the Euro.

The appreciation during the quarter under review is attributed to the surge in investor confidence as the new ANC leadership, elected in December 2017 renewed hopes for growth with a promise to tackle corruption. The markets also welcomed the new president’s cabinet reshuffle that saw major changes, especially in critical ministries. Though the rand was met with risks from uncertainties due to the punting of land expropriation without compensation policy, the positive economic outlook that was given by the South African Reserve Bank (SARB) and Moody’s decision to leave South Africa’s credit rating unchanged at investment grade together with the upgrade of the sovereign outlook from negative to stable, reduced the risks against the Rand. The US Fed policy stance to increase the US interest rate to 1.5 to 1.75 per cent and the SARB’s 25 basis points cut in interest rates in March 2018, slightly slowed down the upward trend to the Rand and brought a steady appreciation to the unit by the end of the quarter. Further increases by the US Fed and Bank of England remain major risks on the performance of the Rand as risks from political and economic developments remain reduced.

Expressed against a basket of trading partners’ currencies, the value of the domestic currency as measured by the Nominal Effective Exchange Rate (NEER) took a different trend and was stronger by an average of 3.79 per cent in the quarter ended in March 2018 following a depreciation averaging of 1.11 per cent in the quarter ended December 2017. The domestic inflation rate was trending at a relatively higher pace than those of trading partners resulting

in the Real Effective Exchange Rate (REER) strengthening by 3.56 per cent, followed by a depreciation of 1.57 per cent in the previous quarter.

The appreciation in the REER dented the competitiveness of the country’s exports during the period while imports were rendered cheaper.

4.2.1 Net Foreign AssetsDuring the first quarter of 2018, net foreign assets went down by a lower 3.2 per cent, compared to a fall of 4.7 per cent observed in the previous quarter. At this level, the net foreign assets amounted to E7.7 billion at the end of March 2018, The decline was discernible in net foreign assets of the official sector while net foreign assets of other depository corporations increased. Net official assets therefore went down by 4.7 per cent quarter-on-quarter to reach E5.6 billion, following a

fall of 5.2 per cent observed in the previous quarter. On the other hand, net foreign assets of other depository corporations increased by 1.0 per cent to reach E2.0 billion at the end of March 2018, an improvement from the fall of 3.2 per cent recorded in the previous quarter. Valued in Special Drawing Rights (SDR) terms, net foreign assets however, declined by a lower 1.4 per cent to SDR443.0 million in line with the slight appreciation of the Lilangeni/Rand exchange rate over the quarter under review. Compared over the year however, net foreign assets grew by 6.1 per cent in Emalangeni terms and by 11.2 per cent in SDR terms.

4.2.2GrossOfficialReservesThe country’s gross official reserves reflected a quarter-on-quarter decline of 4.3 per cent at the end of March 2018 to reach E6.6 billion, compared to a fall of 3.5 per cent recorded at the end of December 2017. The Reserves were enough to cover an estimated 3.2 months of imports of goods and services, lower than the

3.5 months covered in the previous quarter. The value of the reserves in SDRs amounted to SDR381.9 million at the end of March 2018, lower than the SDR393.8 million recorded in the previous quarter. Compared year-on-year, the reserves declined by 9.9 per cent in Emalangeni terms and by 5.5 per cent in SDR terms.

4.2.3 Credit ExtensionDuring the quarter ended March 2018, credit extended to the private sector decreased by 2.5 per cent to E 13.8 billion, contrary to growth of 3.2 per cent observed the fourth quarter of 2017. The fall in private sector credit was attributed to reduced demand for credit to the business and the household sectors over the quarter under review.

Credit extended to businesses contracted by 5.9 per cent over the quarter under review to reach E5.9 billion continuing from the 4.0 per cent per cent fall recorded in the preceding quarter. The reduction in credit to businesses was observed in the Community Social and Personal Services (24.2 per cent), Distribution & Tourism (11.0 per cent), Mining and Quarrying (-8.7 per cent) as well as the Construction (-5.6 per cent) sectors. However, increases were depicted in credit extended to the following sectors; Agriculture & Forestry (8.0 per cent) and Real Estate (1.1 per cent).

Credit extended to households declined by 0.6 per cent to E5.94 billion at the end of March 2018 compared to a fall of 3.7 per cent recorded in the preceding quarter. The fall in credit to households was observed in both the motor vehicle and other personal loans while housing finance improved over the quarter under review. Credit extended for motor vehicle finance fell by 17.9 per cent to E1.1 billion and credit to other personal loans by 4.3 per cent to E1.7 billion. Housing finance however, increased by 9.3 per cent to E3.2 billion.

Credit extended to other sectors went up by 2.4 per cent to settle at E2.0 billion at the end of the first quarter of 2018. The quarterly growth was on account of credit to public nonfinancial corporations (10.3 per cent) and other financial corporations (2.1 per cent). These increases were, however, partly offset by a fall in credit to local government (-42.6 per cent).

A substantial share of private sector credit continued to be dominated by both businesses and households over the quarter under review. The household sector, which forms the largest proportion of total private sector credit, accounted for 42.9 per cent of total private sector credit compared to 42.1 per cent in the previous quarter. The share of the business

sector which is the second largest, constituted a slightly lower 42.7 per cent of private sector credit, less than the share of 44.2 per cent observed in the previous quarter. Other sectors accounted for the remaining 14.4 per cent of total private sector credit, up from the 13.7 per cent share reflected in the last quarter of 2017.

21Central Bank of Swaziland Quarterly Review - March 2018

Net government balances with the banking sector continued to fall in the first quarter of 2018. The reduction in net government balances was due to a combined effect of a rise in the banking sector’s claims on the government and a fall in government deposits

with the banking sector. Claims on government increased by 7.1 per cent over the review quarter to reach E4.1 billion whilst government deposits shrank by 23.5 per cent to reach E3.0 billion at the end of the review quarter.

4.2.4 Money SupplyIn line with the fall in credit extended to the private sector and net foreign assets, broad money supply (M2) declined by 5.0 per cent to E16.5 billion at the end of the first quarter of 2018. This compares to an increase of 1.2 per cent observed in December 2017. Accounting for the fall in M2 were both narrow money supply (M1) and quasi money supply.

Quasi money supply decreased by 7.3 per cent over the review quarter to E10.8 billion from E11.7 billion registered in the previous quarter. Contributing to the reduction in quasi money

supply were both its components savings and time deposits which fell by 3.5 per cent and 7.9 per cent respectively.

Narrow money supply fell by 0.3 per cent to E5.7 billion at the end of March 2018. The quarterly decline in M1 was due to a fall in emalangeni in circulation while transferable deposits increased. Consequently, emalangeni in circulation declined by 12.3 per cent to E533.3 million at the end of March 2018. In contrast, transferable deposits rose by 1.2 per cent to E5.1 billion during the quarter under review.

22 Central Bank of Swaziland Quarterly Review - March 2018

4.2.5 Domestic Liquid AssetsBanks’ liquid assets increased by 1.2 per cent over the review quarter to reach E4.3 billion. The rise in liquid assets was registered in banks’ investment in government securities.

Consistently, the liquidity ratio went up from 27.5 per cent in December 2017 to close at 28.1 per cent at the end of the first quarter in 2018. Compared year-on-year, however, the banks’ liquid assets grew by 25.3 per cent.

4.2.6 Interest RatesInterest rates declined on two occasions during the quarter ended March 2018 following the Central bank of Swaziland’s pursuit of an accommodative monetary policy stance largely underpinned by persistently decelerating inflation outcomes. Consequently, the discount rate declined by 25 basis points in January 2018 and by another 25 basis points in March

2018. This resulted in a cumulative 50 basis points decline in the discount rate to reach 6.75 per cent. The interest rate differential between the local discount rate and the South African repo rate therefore went down from 50 basis points in the fourth quarter of 2017 to 25 basis points as the SARB lowered its repo rate to 6.50 per cent in March 2018.

4.3 PUBLIC DOMESTIC DEBT The total government domestic debt stock outstanding at the end of March 2018 stood at E7.74 billion, marking an over 6 per cent increase from the previous quarter and a 26

per cent year on year increase from the E6.078 billion recorded in March 2017. The increase in domestic debt was driven by improved uptake of government short, medium to long

outstanding domestic debt during the quarter under review, and over seventy 75 per cent of the increase during the financial year.

4.3.2 Swaziland Government BondsTotal Government bonds outstanding at the end of March 2018 increased by 2 per cent from E3.616 billion recorded in December 2017 to E3.695 billion. A marginal net increase in the outstanding bonds of E3.67 million was observed after the issuance of SG031 which had a full allotment of E150.00 million against a maturity of SG011 with an outstanding amount of E146.33 million. Another positive contributor was the issuance of SGIFB004 where SZL130.40 million was allotted. Non-Bank Financial Institutions continued to be the major participants in the quarter under review as their holdings represented 72 per cent of

total bond outstanding at the end of March 2018. The Non-Bank Financial Institutions’ holdings increased by 1 per cent from E2,605 billion to E2.643 billion. Local Commercial Banks’ holdings decreased by E10.03 million which represents a 1 per cent fall from the last quarter. Local banks therefore accounted for 23 per cent of total bonds outstanding. Other participants and individuals’ holdings stood at E194.81 million representing 5 per cent of total bonds outstanding. Central Bank holdings increased by E0.02 million from E0.90 million in the last quarter to E0.92 million in March 2018.

4.4.4 New Loans / Loan MaturityFor the quarter ending March 2018, no new

loans were signed and no loans reached maturity.

4.3.3 Central Bank Advance to GovernmentAn amount of E1.2 billion was advanced to the government by the Bank during the fiscal year ending March 2018 in accordance with the Central Bank of Swaziland Order of 1974. This represented a marginal increase of 17 per cent from the E1.1 billion recorded at the end of the previous fiscal year. The advance has been rolled over periodically from the past fiscal year up to the end of March 2018.

4.3.4 Promissory NotesIn an endeavour to curb accumulation of arrears, the government issued Promissory Notes in during the fiscal year 2017/18 to private companies in respect of services rendered to the government. Promissory notes outstanding increased from E184.5 million recorded in 2016/17 to settle at E351.2 million in 2017/18.

4.4 PUBLIC EXTERNAL DEBT

4.4.1 Debt StockPreliminary figures for the quarter ending March 2018 indicated that public sector external debt decreased in nominal terms. The decrease was mainly due to debt service payments effected in the quarter as well as a strengthening of the Lilangeni against international currencies in which the country’s liabilities are denominated in the quarter under review.

As at the end of March 2018, total public external debt (including public and publicly guaranteed debt) stood at E5.2 billion, an equivalent of 8.3 per cent of GDP. This reflects a decrease of 5.4 per cent when compared to E5.5 billion recorded in the quarter ending December 2017. Central Government decreased to E5.0 billion from E5.3 billion recorded at the end of December 2017.

4.4.2 DisbursementsWhile projects under implementation continued to disburse under the project loans, the information for disbursements is not available for this period under review.

4.4.3 Debt ServiceFor the quarter ending March 2018, total debt service amounted to E82.5 million. Of this amount, principal repayments accounted for E47.7 million while interest payments accounted for E34.8 million.

Swaziland’s debt ratios have remained reasonably low compared to other African countries based on debt critical ratios for Low Income Countries established by the Brettonwoods Institutions (IMF & World Bank). The country’s debt position for the period ending March 2018 is summarised in the table below:

31Central Bank of Swaziland Quarterly Review - March 2018

4.5 BALANCE OF PAYMENTS (AS AT QUARTER ENDING DECEMBER 2017)

4.5.1 OverviewSwaziland’s overall balance of payments posted a deficit of E88.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2017. This is reflected as a net E88.7 million decline in the country’s foreign reserve assets largely attributable to a E128.4 million depletion in foreign securities invested outside the country’s borders. In the third quarter, the country acquired a net E199.6 million in foreign reserves.

4.5.2 Current AccountIn the quarter ending December 2017, Swaziland posted a E1.305 billion current account surplus which shows a reduction of E581.5 million from the surplus reported in the third quarter. The deceleration in the surplus was due to a wider net outflow in the primary income account. The surplus in the fourth quarter was equivalent to 2.2 per cent of GDP from 3.2 per cent in the previous quarter.

4.5.3 Trade AccountThe trade account registered a quarterly 14.7 per cent wider surplus of E1.683 billion when compared with the previous quarter. The surplus is explained by the country’s exports which grew faster than imports during the period. Merchandise export receipts grew by 12.1 per cent quarter-on-quarter in the fourth quarter after surging a significant 24.5 per cent in the third quarter. A year-on year comparison, however, paints a different picture showing a 3.6 per cent decline in receipts related to exports of merchandise goods. The notable erosion of export receipts in the fourth quarter is partly attributable to the stronger Lilangeni against major world currencies when compared to the same period in 2016.

Export earnings from products of chemical industries rose 34.2 per cent quarter-on-quarter to E4.031 billion in the fourth quarter of 2017. Contributing to this increase were ‘perfumery and preparations’ and ‘miscellaneous chemical products’ which account for 96.6 per cent of total receipts posted under products of chemical industries. Sugar and sugar confectionary recorded exports amounting to E1.085 billion, depicting a 20.2 per cent decline from the preceding quarter. This is usual taking into account the seasonality of the sugar industry. In the third quarter, sugar and sugar confectionary recorded a 34.0 per cent quarter-on-quarter increase in export receipts.

Over the years, data shows that the country’s wood and wood products are consumed in the South African market. Earnings from this product line dropped by 12.7 per cent quarter-on-quarter to E322.5 million after a 14.2 per cent increase in the previous quarter. Textiles and articles of textiles showed some resilience during the fourth quarter, registering a 3.3 per cent quarterly increase in earnings to E847.7 million. From a year earlier, textiles yielded a 4.4 per cent increase in export proceeds. The South African market has proven to be a buffer for textiles which have recorded consistent growth along the years.

The country’s import bill grew by 11.3 per cent to E5.401 billion in the last quarter of 2017. Imports are largely dominated by fuel imports which grew to E677.9 million, depicting a 10.4 per cent rise from the previous quarter. Fuel imports grew a significant 11.2 per cent from a year earlier in tandem with a 26.2 per cent year-on-year increase in vehicle imports. A quarterly analysis shows that vehicles cost the country an amount of E419.3 million in the fourth quarter, rising by 8.3 per cent from the previous quarter.

32 Central Bank of Swaziland Quarterly Review - March 2018

4.5.4 Services AccountThe services account deficit narrowed by 8.1 per cent quarter-on-quarter to E1.061 billion in the final quarter of 2017. Services inflows posted an impressive E841.7 million in the fourth quarter, an expansion of 84.5 per cent from the previous quarter. Outflows for the quarter were E1.902 billion, an 18.2 per cent quarter-on-quarter increase.

Net outflows of E496.9 million were recorded in the transport services account in the quarter ending December 2017, an increase of 4.4 per cent from the E476.2 million of the preceding period. Transport services inflows were E131.9 million, growing by 18.3 per cent owing to increases in all transport services exports. The transport services account registered outflows of E628.8 million, a quarterly growth of 6.6 per cent compared to the third quarter.

Travel services in the final quarter of the year registered a narrow deficit of E148.9 million compared to the E206 million deficit in the previous quarter. Swaziland remains a net importer of travel services, notwithstanding the 27.7 per cent quarterly contraction in net travel services owing to a decline in the demand for business and personal travel

services. Travel services inflows grew by 21 per cent to E53.1 million with outflows plunging by 19.2 per cent to E202 million.

4.5.5 Primary IncomeThe primary income account recorded a deficit of E1.374 billion in the final quarter of 2017, a significantly wider deficit than the E721.4 million recorded in the preceding quarter. The increased deficit is as a result of net outflows in investment income and other primary income of E1.120 billion and E355.3 million respectively. Compensation of employees, on the other hand, recorded a surplus of E100.7 million in the same period, and was not enough to offset the shortfall in the other sub accounts.

In the quarter ending December 2017, compensation of employees’ inflows amounted to E134.5 million, 30.6 per cent higher than the previous quarter. Compensation of employees outflows recorded a decrease of 12.0 per cent quarter-on-quarter from E38.6 million.

Investment income inflows amounted to E432.0 million from a lower E313.9 million in the third quarter. Outflows in the same account,

however, increased from E899.8 million to E1.552 billion on account of dividend payments of E623.6 million and reinvested earnings withdrawals of E884.1 million.

During the review quarter, other primary income inflows recorded a quarter-on-quarter decline of 24.7 per cent to E136.0 million. Outflows in this subaccount increased by a quarterly 26.0 per cent to E491.3 million, explaining the deterioration in the category. A major component in the other primary income sub-account is the taxes on products and production for both inflows and outflows.

4.5.6 Secondary IncomeThe secondary income account surplus contracted by a quarterly 10.3 per cent in the last quarter of 2017, recording a lower surplus of E2.057 billion. A year-on-year analysis, however, shows a significant increase of 31.0 per cent.

Underpinning the consistent surplus observed in the account are SACU receipts, whose inflows amounted to E1.777 billion in the period representing 86.4 per cent of total inflows. Other inflows include personal transfers of E323.9 million as well as other transfers of E97.7 million. Secondary income outflows increase by 10.8 per cent quarter-on-quarter to E141.4 million comprising of social contributions, insurance and other miscellaneous transfers.

4.5.7 Financial AccountThe financial account shows that during the last quarter of 2017, the country acquired foreign assets amounting to E2.017 billion, making it a net lender during the period. In the third quarter the financial account posted a net E1.438 billion in foreign asset acquisitions. The increase in the asset base is attributable to movements in the ‘other investment’ account. The direct investment account recorded E167.5 million net gains in foreign assets acquired in the fourth quarter from a net incurrence of E746.1 million in liabilities during the preceding quarter. The account acquired E946.5 million worth of foreign assets from a E4.6 million drop in assets in the third quarter. The assets acquired during the period consist mainly of debt instruments extended to fellow enterprises.

The portfolio investment account posted a net deterioration of E158.2 million in foreign assets acquired in the fourth quarter of 2017 after registering a net E200 million decline in assets acquired in the preceding period.

The ‘other investment’ account recorded a net acquisition of E2.052million in foreign assets driven by trade credits extended to foreign customers of exports. In the third quarter the net increase in assets acquired was wider at E2.140 million. Foreign liabilities incurred rose by E424.0 million buoyed by a E358.1 million worth of short term currency and deposits liabilities received by deposit taking corporations.

35Central Bank of Swaziland Quarterly Review - March 2018

5.1 Monetary Policy Statement – January 2018On 19 January 2018 the Central Bank of Swaziland (Bank), together with the Monetary Policy Consultative Committee (MPCC) held a meeting to consider the appropriate monetary policy stance for the Bank in the upcoming two months.

The appropriate monetary policy stance was taken after considering the international, regional and domestic economic conditions, which the Bank envisaged would have an effect on its price and financial stability mandate. The Bank decided to lower the discount rate by 0.25 per cent from 7.25 per cent to 7 per cent, effective 20 November 2017.

The underlying reasons to cut the discount rate are discussed below: Firstly, international economic conditions continue to show signs of sustained improvement since the last MPCC meeting in November 2017. The growth momentum is sustained in advanced and emerging markets whilst inflationary pressures in most of these countries is closer to targets. The South African economy is also seen to be improving in the latter quarters after a tough first half of the year in 2017.

Secondly, inflation pressures have subsided whilst inflation forecasts also come down. Inflation decelerated to 4.7 per cent in December 2017 from 4.9 per cent in November 2017. The observed decrease in inflation was mainly driven by a decline in food inflation which decelerated from 3.5 per cent in November to 2.6 per cent in December 2017. Additional deflationary pressures emanated from slower price increases in the price indices for furnishing, household equipment and routine household maintenance, which decreased from 3.5 per cent in November to 2.4 per cent in December 2017.

In 2017, inflation averaged 6.2 per cent, 0.32 per cent lower than the forecast average of

6.52 per cent for the year. Annual average inflation is forecasted at 5.6 per cent for 2018. On a quarterly basis, inflation is forecasted to average 5.37 per cent in the first quarter, 5.21 per cent for the second quarter, 5.4 per cent for the third quarter and 6.34 per cent for the fourth quarter. The volatile Lilangeni exchange rate against major currencies and the rising oil prices remain the main upside risks to inflation whilst the falling food prices pose a downside risk.

Thirdly, growth in the banking sector’s credit to the private sector remained relatively subdued over the period under review. Annual growth in credit extended to the private sector stood at 4.8 per cent at the end of November 2017, lower than the 10.8 per cent increase recorded in September 2017. The slowdown in growth was attributed to slower increase in credit to all components when compared to data presented at the November MPCC meeting. Growth in credit extended to the Businesses slowed from 16.9 per cent in September to 11.4 per cent in November 2017. Similarly, growth in credit to Household sector slumped from 5.8 per cent in September to a meagre 1.2 per cent in November 2017. On the other hand, credit to Other Sectors declined by 7.8 per cent over the same period.

Lastly, as at 12 January 2018, the country’s Gross Official Reserves amounted to E8.4 billion, reflecting a 21.2 per cent increase from the E6.93 billion recorded in December 2017. The growth in Reserves was mainly due to the quarterly inflow of the SACU receipts. At this level, the Reserves were sufficient to cover an estimated 4.1 months of imports of goods and services.

The Bank will continue to monitor developments that will influence the movement of inflation and reassures members of the public that it will act appropriately if there are significant changes to the inflation outlook.

Furthermore, the Bank reassures the public that the current monetary policy stance

5. STATEMENTS OF THE MONETARY POLICY COMMITTEE

36 Central Bank of Swaziland Quarterly Review - March 2018

remains supportive to economic growth and employment creation. The effective date for this discount rate (7 per cent) is 20 January 2018.

5.2 Monetary Policy Statement – March 2018On the 29 March 2018, the Central Bank of Swaziland (Bank), together with the Monetary Policy Consultative Committee (MPCC) held a meeting to consider the appropriate monetary policy stance for the Bank for the upcoming two months.

The appropriate monetary stance was taken after considering international, regional and domestic economic conditions, which the Bank envisaged would have an effect on its price and financial stability mandate.

The Bank decided to cut the discount rate by 25 basis points from 7 per cent to 6.75 per cent, effective 31 March 2018.

The underlying reasons for the cut in the discount rate are enumerated below:

Global economic activity continues to firm up owing to an increased momentum in global growth and the expected impact in U.S. tax policy changes that have been recently approved. On the other hand, inflation in advanced economies continues to be on an upward trajectory, with inflation rates above set targets due to inflationary pressures emanating from increasing oil prices. Under regional developments, growth in South Africa firmed up from 2.3 per cent in the third quarter 2017 to 3.1 per cent in the last quarter. Furthermore, consumer inflation moderated to 4 per cent in February 2018 from 4.4 per cent in January 2018, and is expected to average 4.9 per cent in 2018 due to the stronger exchange rate. This demonstrates that inflationary pressures have moderated somewhat.

Domestic consumer prices continued on

a downward path, with headline inflation declining to 4.0 per cent in February 2018 from 4.6 per cent in January 2018. The slowdown in consumer prices mainly benefitted from slower increases in the price indices for ‘food and non-alcoholic beverages’, ‘transport’ and ‘clothing and footwear’.

As inflationary pressures continued to moderate in the opening two months of 2018, the Bank revised downwards its forecasts to reflect an average of 5.41 per cent for the year 2018, from the previous forecast of 5.61 per cent. The Bank expects inflation to moderate to 4.93 per cent and 5.21 per cent in the first and second quarter of 2018 respectively. The proposed increase in Value Added Tax (VAT), rising oil prices and adjustment of administered prices pose upside risks to the inflation outlook.

Growth in the private sector credit has shown significant improvement since the last seating of the Committee. Year-on-year credit extension to the private sector grew by 12.7 per cent at the end of February 2018, higher than the 8.9 per cent growth recorded in December 2017. This was boosted by the accommodative monetary policy stance pursued by the Bank since January 2018.

As at 23 March 2018, the country’s reserves were at E6.6 billion, equivalent to 3.3 months of imports of goods and services. The country’s reserves have remained above the recommended 3 months of imports of goods and services.

The Bank will continue to monitor developments that will influence the movements of inflation and reassures members of the public that it will act appropriately if there are significant changes to the inflation outlook. The Bank further reassures the public that the Bank’s monetary policy stance remains supportive to economic growth and employment creation. The effective date for this bank rate (6.75 per cent) is 31 march 2018.

*Effective 9th March 1998, the South African Reserve Bank introduced a new accomodation policy for banks on the basis of repurchase agreements (repos) replacing the

discount rate facility. There is also the marginal lending facility which is currently higher than the repo rate.

Rates on large-scale interbank deposits as well as other money rates often diverge widely from the deposit rates offered to the general public. Since July, 1985 deposit rates

Discount Rate Treasury Bills Prime Lending

are average based on rates quoted by the banks to the public in Swaziland. The latest South African prime lending and bank deposit rates are obtained from the weekly

publications, the FINANCE WEEK and the FINANCIAL MAIL. The quartely Bulletin of the South African Reserve Bank is source for other South African rates .
