Western Cape Quarterly economic bulletin 3 of 2016

The Western Cape Quarterly economic bulletin "is the only regular economic publication by the Western Cape Government that communicates its economic strategy, key strategic economic interventions and policy directives.The QEB analyses economic trends and events that affect the regional and national economy and discusses economic opportunities for the region and its firms." The Quarterly bulletin 3 of 2016 "explores the impact and potential responses to the fourth wave of industrialisation. The potential impact to employment is truly scary and will require focus at the helm if the country is to navigate the tsunami of technological innovations that threatens employment. This edition attempts to explain and simplify the complexities of energy, one of the Province’s Game Changers.In addition, it explores the growth in halaal food demand and shares the rationale of why halaal food is so integral to Project Khulisa. Lastly, notwithstanding some crazy developments, a third of our share portfolio has returned more than 20% over the last seven months and outperformed the ALSI again by some margin. We only have one share showing a marginal decline of 0.5%. Our bullish outlook on SA Inc. appears to be paying handsome dividends."
