| Tóm tắt: | This 2008 Article IV Consultation highlights that South Africa's economic performance has strengthened in the last several years, with real GDP growing by 5-5 1\2 percent in 2005-07, inflation declining to mid-single digits until recently, and employment growing steadily.

Executive Directors have welcomed the authorities' pursuit of a prudent fiscal policy, and their intention to maintain a broadly neutral fiscal stance in 2008. |
