World Economic Report

In this week's economic report, we look at the UK-Africa investment summit as Boris Johnson meets African leaders in a move aimed at making Britain its business partner. Meanwhile, the Davos summit kicked off in Switzerland with president Cyril Ramaphosa absent at both events. The conference comes at the back of IMF cutting the country's 2020 growth forecast . And a global inequality report by Oxfam shows the richest people in the world have more wealth than 60% of the population, with 22 of the richest men having more wealth than all the women in Africa. In South Africa, the wage gap increased between 2011 and 2015. On line is Senior Research Fellow at University of Pretoria, Dr Jason Musyok
