SLOWDOWN IN GROWTH - ADDITIONAL FEATURES  Decline in mineral commodity prices from 2012 peak levels: • Platinum: ↓32% • Gold: ↓30% • Iron- ore: ↓55% • Coal: ↓37 %.  Over production capacity in manufacturing. Steel surplus is case in point.  Monetary policy stimulus may have to run its course. Patchy outcomes: US successful, EU and Japan are still to be determined.  Developed countries dug deep into “policy toolkit” – even negative interest rates.  South Africa, on the other hand, is managing a serious drought, has an uptick in inflation and increases in interest rates.  Consumer and business confidence remain frail. 4
