I would like to first and foremost extend my special thanks to our Ministers who have honoured us with their presence today. It is a strong testimony to the continuous dialogue that exists between the Government and the private sector. The State of the Economy address is a well-established tradition at the MCCI. It is an opportunity for us to voice out the views of our members, be they SMEs or large Corporates. We are here to share our appraisal of the economy, to emphasise the barriers to the conduct of business, and to point out some of the challenges facing our country. Most importantly however, we are here to look at the future – at the opportunities and prospects – and how we can all contribute to bring positive change to our country. We are faced with an unprecedented uncertainty in the world economic context. For yet another year since the 2009 global economic crisis, the world economy stumbled. While major high-income countries experienced a modest recovery, emerging and developing economies continue to be affected by slowdown in economic activity. On the upside, there has been a significant fall in oil and other commodity prices over the last year and we, as an importing nation, have definitely benefited from it. Nonetheless, structural reforms in China, increased volatility in a number of advanced economies, and geopolitical tensions in the emerging nations have all piled up to create a world environment where growth remains lethargic. The Mauritian economic performance is highly reliant on the world economy. And we are today faced with the triple challenge of high unemployment, low inflation and modest economic growth. In 2015, our GDP growth was estimated at 3.4 percent, a repeat of the previous year. This is far from the average growth rates of 5 percent and above achieved in the years preceding the global financial crisis. Furthermore, as shown in the last MCCI Economic Perspectives, for the last decade we have been growing below our optimal capacity and there has been a general fall in our productivity levels. In the last decade, the pace of change in our economy has slowed down. We are, in Mauritius, at the crossroads where bold measures and quick wins are essential to bring back confidence in the economy. It is today vital that the Government uses its two main tools - the monetary tool, and the fiscal tool to transform our economic path. In a communiqué of finance ministers of the G20 group of nations released end of last month, it was pointed out that monetary policy alone would be insufficient to boost growth in the global economy. The Mauritian economy has for a number of years been in a phase where supply is higher than demand, marked by deflationary pressures and a non-reversal of the unemployment trend. It is no secret that consumption is one of the major components supporting growth in Mauritius. 15 MCCI • ANNUAL REPORT 2015 | 2016 Despite an increase of 2.9 percent in the past year, we are far from our long-term consumption growth patterns which was at 6.4 percent in 2005. In fact, in the last few years, consumption expenditure has been pallid, growing at less than 3 percent annually compared to pre-crisis consumption growth of more than 5 percent. The actual 3% is particularly low.

  • Banking Research Report
    24 March 2017 3rd January 2017 Banking Research Report Industry Overview As of March 2017, the local banking industry constitutes of 23 licensed banks by the Bank of Mauritius (BoM), of which 10 are local banks, 9 are foreign-owned subsidiaries, and 4 are branches of international banks. Of the 23 banks, 2 carry on exclusively private banking business and 1 carries on exclusively Islamic banking business. In April 2015, the BoM revoked the banking licence of Bramer Banking Corporation Ltd (BBCL) owing to serious impairment in its capital and failure to demonstrate its ability to address capital and liquidity issues in accordance to the BoM’s requirements. A new licence has been issued to the National Commercial Bank Ltd (NCB Ltd) with the assets of ex-BBCL transferred to the new bank. In early January 2016, the assets and liabilities of NCB Ltd were transferred to the Mauritius Post and Cooperative Bank Ltd, which now operates as a new entity known as the MauBank Ltd. Following the aforementioned revocation, dealings in the securities of the defunct Bramer Bank has been suspended by the Stock Exchange of Mauritius (SEM) with immediate effect. On another note, ABC Banking Ltd which obtained its banking licence in year 2010, was listed on the Development and Enterprise Market (DEM) of the SEM on the 18th February 2016. The newcomer witnessed a remarkable hike of 83.3% to its introductory share price of Rs15.00 during the year 2016 and hit a record high of Rs27.80 during February this year. With the vision to act as a bridge between Africa and Asia, BOM issued a licence to the Bank of China (Mauritius), a subsidiary of the Bank of China, which started its operations in Sept 2016.

  • Merchants Acceptance of Plastic Cards Payments in Mauritius
    Academy of Marketing Studies Journal Volume 25, Issue 2, 2021 Recommendations POST COVID 19 CASHLESS SOCIETIES: MERCHANTS ACCEPTANCE OF PLASTIC CARDS PAYMENTS IN MAURITIUS Sharmila Pudaruth, University of Mauritius Thanika Devi Juwaheer, University of Mauritius Lomendra Vencataya, University of Mauritius Rajesh Sannegadu, University of Mauritius ABSTRACT The paper aims to provide broad insights towards the acceptance of plastic card payments from merchants in Mauritius. A quantitative research approach has been adopted for the paper whereby the perceptions of merchants have been tapped by adopting quantitative research techniques, by conducting a survey with 200 merchants across the 9 districts of the island of Mauritius. As far as the perception of merchants is concerned for plastic card acceptance, only 37% of merchants accept plastic card payments and they have highlighted such factors as ‘to increase frequency sales (21.7%)’, ‘to increase competitiveness (20.8%)’ and ‘lower risks of theft and counterfeit (19.8%)’ as the main reasons for adopting innovative payment solutions. This original research has made a valuable contribution to the body of literature as there is a lack of empirical and holistic studies towards innovative payment solutions in Mauritius. Therefore, the research has enough concrete and empirical findings that would serve as a roadmap for banking executives, credit card companies, policy makers of banking industry and merchants to better promote and sustain the adoption of plastic cards by devising appealing marketing strategies in Post Covid19. The research will also provide merchants with insightful ideas to promote the adoption of plastic cards among customers as merchants are in direct touch with customers in the retail outlets of Mauritius.
