Press Corporation Limited Annual Report 2015 7 tHE GEnEral EcOnOMy Strategic Report cHairMan’S REPORT The Malawi Economy registered a lower GDP growth of 3% in 2015 from a growth of 6% in 2014 and an average growth of 5% in the previous year. The marginal slowdown in growth was mainly attributable to reduced performance in the agricultural sector which is the driving force of the economy. The sector was affected mainly by the late onset of rains during the growing season and also by the foods which affected some parts of the country in the frst quarter of 2015. The Economic Intelligence Unit of The Economist estimated that the agricultural sector grew 0.3% in 2015 from a growth of 6.1% in 2014.

In March 2015, the IMF Board approved the release of US$ 18 million under extended credit facility after Government had put in place prudent fscal management conditions. On the Malawi Stock Exchange However, Malawi was declared off track in September 2015 due to fscal policy slippages arising from overspending on the wage bill.
The average headline infation at the beginning of 2015 was 21.9% which was lower than 23.8% in the last quarter of 2014 owing to effects of tight monetary policy, currency appreciation and lower international fuel prices. However this trend did not last long due to a Simon A Itaye depreciating currency and a sharp rise in food prices. Therefore infation closed at 24.9% by December 2015 which was higher than the 24.2% in the same period the previous year. Shortage of maize due to adverse weather conditions and the foods which devastated some parts of the country was the main driver of the increase in infation.

Press Corporation Limited Annual Report 2015 10 GROUP CHIEF OVERVIEW EXECUTIVE’S Strategic Report The operating environment in 2015 was tough, characterized by a REPORT sharp depreciation of the Malawi Kwacha, high infation, high interest rates, tight liquidity, and reduced consumer spending. The Malawi Kwacha depreciated by 43% due to continued appetite for imports with weak infows from exports and direct foreign investments. This was compounded by the low discretional spending and the increase in food prices due to reduction in agriculture production as a result of foods that affected most parts of the Country during the 2014/15 growing season. The operating environment was further dampened by the liquidity squeeze resulting from the contractionary monetary policy adopted by Reserve Bank of Malawi to reduce pressure on infation and
