Introduction

Investment attraction remains a key priority for government:

Despite the current conditions, South Africa still receives investment and is regarded as a promising investment destination by Multinationals.

ISA Investment Pipeline for Q1 - Q4 of potential projects is R 93 bn, buoyed by commitments made by Chinese State Visit in December in automotive and infrastructure investment.

The Chinese government recently pledged R50-billion investment towards industrialisation in SA. The announcement was made by the Chinese Commerce department during its courtesy visit to the dti.

In the green economy, R 190 Billion of investment has been attracted due to the REIPPP, which is globally recognised as a model for renewable energy

This affirms that foreign investors believes in the potential of the South African economy.

The need for Investment • Critical analysis indicates a strongly positive correlation between

average ratios of gross fixed capital formation (GFC) to GDP and the rates of Economic Growth – with high growth economies (consistently achieving in excess of 5% real GDP growth

per year) having an average ratio of GFCF to GDP of more than 30%,

– those averaging between 3% and 5% real GDP growth a year have an average GFCF:GDP ratio of around 23%.

• The National Development Plan’s Vision 2030 notes that it will be necessary to increase the ratio of GFCF to GDP from current levels of 17% to 30%, – the contribution of public sector fixed investment should increase from around 7%

currently to 10% of GDP by 2030.

– in order to fund this increase in investment, the NDP assumes that the domestic savings rate will rise from 16 to 25% of GDP,

– which means that there is a presumption that net foreign funding will contribute the remaining 5% of GDP.

President Zuma recently established an Inter-Ministerial Committee on Investment Promotion to further improve the investor climate and support. The IMC, which chaired by the President, assisted by the Minister of Trade and Industry, focuses on the following tasks: 1. Overall coordination, alignment and policy coherence on economic policy and regulatory framework, thereby providing clarity and certainty to investors. 2. Improvement in South Africa's investment climate in particular the ease of doing business and competitiveness of South Africa. 3. Coordination and roll out of the One Stop Shop Service across all levels in government. The One Stop Service will fast track, unblock and reduce red tape in government. All departments in the three spheres of Government need to commit to a continuous improvement and a service delivery ethos. 4. Overall coordination and alignment in terms of South Africa's marketing, communication, and media in terms of our messaging of South Africa as an investment destination both locally and abroad. 5. Scaling up private sector investment, higher impact Industrial Policy Action Plan, support for the black industrialist programme, SME development and the Township Economy. 6. Identification, packaging and implementing investment projects in terms of the national interest and economic development. 7. Regional integration and industrialisation of the African Continent. 8. Promoting cooperation and partnerships between government and the private sector. 9.

• It will be the focal point of contact in government for all investors to coordinate and facilitate the relevant government departments involved in regulatory, registration, permits and licensing.

• It will shorten and simplify administrative procedures and guidelines for issuance of business approvals, permits and licenses, thereby removing bottlenecks faced by investors in establishing and running businesses.

• Reduce the silo mentality, turnaround times , red tape and improve service delivery. ISA will fast track, unblock and reduce red tape in Government.

• ISA for Investors will provide: • Facilitation of the entire investment value chain; • Specialist advisory services to investors; • Co-ordination between the various line ministries; • Communication of these services to potential investors; and • Be the facilitation window of clearance for registration, licensing and permits. Investors are encouraged to contact ISA at the dti for these services.

• In addition to the reforms highlighted by the World Bank ease of

• Although we have made progress in the World Competitiveness Report moving up

rankings from 56 to 49, more needs to be done.

• South Africa is falling in the ease of doing business ranking 2016 from 189 countries,

69 in 2015 to 73 in 2016.

• In order to achieve our NDP target of 30% of GFCF we need to be more competitive

and our ease of doing business rankings need to be in the upper quartile,

• South Africa needs to improve its investment climate through regulatory reform,

procedures, business processes and turnaround times.

• These are also impediments highlighted in President Business Working Group, in

consultations with investors, in forums such as WEF and in the recent investors

launch.

• All three spheres of government need to commit to continuous improvement yearly,

improving our rankings and attractiveness as a destination of choice for doing

business. 29

In SA more than 18 National Government Departments plus Provincial, Local, SOE’s involved in policy regulatory, permits, licensing, registration

of business. Hence a greater need for coordination, alignment

and facilitation on investment. Focal unit to unblock, fast track and reduce red

tape in Government through One Stop Shop

National Government Departments Coordination

SA has 18 government departments involved in policy regulatory, registration permits and licensing. Need for strategic re-alignment

According to research by investment specialists, as much as 70% of new investments are re-investment/expansion of existing companies

– which means investor aftercare is paramount.

BUSINESS FACILITATION PROJECT TO IMPROVE INVESTMENT CLIMATE THROUGH AN ONLINE PORTAL • The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) is requesting technical assistance from UNCTAD's Business Facilitation Program to promote investment and entrepreneurship in South Africa by clarifying, simplifying and automating investment-related administrative procedures, and improving information on investment opportunities.

• The Business Facilitation Project (BFP) aims at overhauling South Africa's services for investors and entrepreneurs through the creation of a Virtual Integrated Investment Portal (VIIP) combining innovative user-oriented online services:

• eRegulations: a step-by-step guide on investment related procedures including information on all requirements and forms, norms and laws, contact persons and recourses

• eRegistrations: a transactional system enabling investors to apply online to start a business, obtain business visas, work permits, tax incentives and key licenses to operate a business in South Africa

• iGuide: objective and up-to date information on the investment climate in SA and a comprehensive database of investment opportunities.

• Furthermore, an iSimplification program will be deployed to assist the Government's efforts to streamline the regulatory environment for investors.

• Project to begin in 16/17 over a period of 2 years.

CORE DEPARTMENTS SELECTED NEED TO COMMIT TO STREAMLINING PROCESSES WHICH WILL IMPROVE OUR EASE OF BUSINESS AND INVESTMENT CLIMATE 35

CIPC aims to create greater accessibility to its services by having a presence through different channels. These are:

• Partnering with Provincial Economic Development Departments, interested government entities such as Transnet, big business representatives such as the JSE and Chambers of Commerce – having CIPC self-service terminals at partner locations

• Third Party Model – through which we make our technology available to interested government and private sector stakeholders (currently we are testing the project with the South African Institute of Black Auditors, ECDC and a private accounting firm) to register and maintain company registration services using the Department of Home Affairs’ fingerprinting (biometric verification) services

• Banks – Nedbank, Standard bank and FNB have built platforms which enable entrepreneurs to apply for business bank accounts and company registration in one seamless process.

• CIPC Service Centres – having Self Service Terminals in Pretoria, Johannesburg and Cape Town

• Website- offering e-services.

Besides the TED's, CIPC is engaging with all previous partners as well as the local economic development departments in each province to ensure a presence. The strategy is to have a presence in each province and the number of terminals will be dependant on the demand and volume. For SMME, which requires simple registration, process is now 100% automated . SSTs are available at major banks and for investors at the JSE
