We help the mining and projects industry plan for the future
Scenario Planning for COVID-19 and
its impact on Southern Africa's
Core Commodities

"Scenario planning is not a tool for making predictions. The future remains as unpredictable as ever. Rather, it is a tool for better decision making. The measure of good scenario planning is whether we made a better decision as a result of having considered the possible scenarios."
In light of the COVID-19 infection rapidly wreaking havoc on both public health & the global economy, Afriforesight is offering a series of highly informative web presentations.
We will be exploring various future scenarios & their impact on each of SA’s core commodities, where we will assess:
-
Commodity prices, with forecasts of the next 18-months
-
Global and local supply, with forecasts and analyses of the major producers
-
Global demand, with forecasts and analyses of the major demand drivers
