Four areas of coverage, each tied to a decision an operator, investor or lender has to make.
Public finance and taxation
Budget laws, budget execution, revenue measures and tax administration, followed through official publications and the national press. Dated and interpreted.
The question it answers: Does this change the government’s fiscal position or our tax obligations?
Mining policy and regulation
Export measures, quotas, by-product taxation, royalties and waiver decisions, and how they add up.
The question it answers: What is the cumulative regulatory load on our operation, and what is left to discretion?
Banking, currency and reserves
The central bank’s policy rate, the franc, international reserves, and progress on the country’s anti-money-laundering reforms.
The question it answers: What does this mean for financing, payments and currency exposure?
Political and security risk
The economic consequences of the security situation in the east and of the peace processes. We take no political position.
The question it answers: Could this disrupt operations, supply or investor confidence?
Every claim is tied to a cited source.
Analysis is kept separate from reporting.
Every item carries its publication date.
