The International Monetary Fund (IMF) says the South African economy will only grow by a projected 0.1% this year. It expects weak growth due to load-shedding, as well as the weaker commodity prices and external environment. However, the IMF expects growth to rebound in the medium term, although only to about 1.5% per year, with income per capita likely to stagnate.
