AFRICAN ECONOMIC OUTLOOK 2020: AFRICA'S ECONOMY FORECAST TO GROW DESPITE EXTERNAL SHOCKS

The slower than expected growth is partly due to the moderate expansion of the continent’s “big five” — Algeria, Egypt, Morocco, Nigeria, and South Africa

ABIDJAN, Ivory Coast, January 30, 2020/ -- For the first time in a decade, investment expenditure rather than consumption accounts for more than half of GDP growth; report calls for urgent investment in education and infrastructure for good returns in long-term GDP; “Youth unemployment must be given top priority. With 12 million graduates entering the labor market each year and only 3 million of them getting jobs, the mountain of youth unemployment is rising annually.” – Akinwumi Adesina, President, African Development Bank Africa’s economic growth remained stable in 2019 at 3.4 percent and is on course to pick up to 3.9 percent in 2020 and 4.1 percent in 2021, the African Development Bank’s (AfDB.org) 2020 African Economic Outlook (AEO) (http://bit.ly/2vABQFU) revealed Thursday. The slower than expected growth is partly due to the moderate expansion of the continent’s “big five” — Algeria, Egypt, Morocco, Nigeria, and South Africa – whose joint growth was an average rate of 3.1 percent, compared with the average of 4.0 percent for the rest of the continent. The Bank’s flagship publication, published annually since 2003, provides headline numbers on Africa’s economic performance and outlook. The 2020 edition, launched at the Bank’s Abidjan headquarters, was attended by former Liberian president Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, African ministers, diplomats, researchers, and representatives of various international bodies.

WHY BANKS SHOULD EMBRACE SOCIAL MEDIA - PART TWO

By Kelvin Mkwawa, Seasoned Banker.

Last week, I urged that in the current banking environment, strategic social communication has become an integral component of how banks build relationships with their customers and communities. Hence, banks need to move towards providing faster and more efficient communication solutions for their existing clients and engage with prospective clients. One way to do that is through social media platforms. The bank needs an effective, comprehensive, profitable social marketing strategy that integrates with the rest of its marketing activities. It’s not just about which social media platforms to use, but how to use them, and when. Therefore, the bank needs to define a social media strategy that suits its business.

Also, I pointed out that many banks in Tanzania are lagging behind in their comprehensive adoption of social media as they do not understand how to strategically use social media. For a bank to have a competitive advantage, it needs to embrace social media platforms. 

I shared two reasons why banks should embrace social media: it reduces costs and improves efficiency and improves customer experience. I urged that for those banks that do not use social media platforms yet, wake up as social media is here to stay and will continue to be a major player in the bankingindustry. So it is imperative for a bank to plan how it will utilize the social media platforms. So how can social media help banks? This week I will share two more reasons why banks should embrace social media:

• Finding potential customers - According to the Tanzania Communication Regulatory Authority (TCRA), the number of internet users in Tanzania is 23 million with most of them browsing while on the go via mobile devices. It is safe to assume all internet users have access to social media since mobile users just love to flock to social networking sites and platforms. Through social media, banks can monitor online conversations to understand the behaviours and needs of prospective customers, which will enable the banks to design new, or modify existing, products based on those needs.

11 THINGS PEOPLE DECIDE WITHIN SECONDS OF MEETING YOU

People make assumptions about your personality based on a quick scan of your clothes and general appearance.

They also make inferences on how successful you are based on what you're wearing, and how aggressive you are based on the shape of your face.

Here are 11 things people decide within seconds of meeting you.

Psychologists call it "thin slicing."

Within moments of meeting you, people decide all sorts of things about you, from status to intelligence to conscientiousness.

Career experts say it takes just three seconds for someone to determine whether they like you and want to do business with you.

Fortunately, you have some control over the way others see you. For example, wearing tailored clothes and looking your conversation partner in the eye will generally create a more positive impression. But as for how aggressive you seem? That's largely determined by your facial structure.

Here, we've rounded up 11 assumptions people make about you sometimes accurate and sometimes less so based on first impressions. Read on to find out what signals you might be giving off.

THE TANZANIAN TELECOMMUNICATION SECTOR NOW EMPLOYS OVER 1.5M PEOPLE

By Mandara Tilisho, 

Dar es Salaam.

Last week, the Deputy Minister for Works Transport and Communications, called upon the Tanzanian Postal Corporation to embrace new technologies and draw upon the benefits of today’s innovative digital solutions. Speaking at an industry event, the Deputy Minister highlighted the ways in which recent changes in the technology landscape are helping to drive the country’s economic growth.

One sector which is helping drive forward the digital technology that has helped to boost economic activity is Tanzania’s telecommunications sector.

During the past decade, the country’s telecommunications sector has invested heavily in developing digital technology, leading to a massive increase in the number of mobile subscribers to date.

The sector has also enjoyed considerable growth itself. As a result, the Tanzanian telecommunication sector now employs over 1.5 million people, providing a wide range of job opportunities, from software technicians, customer support staff, and SIM card vendors. With the roll-out of new technologies such as 4G, mobile operators have looked to expand their workforce to ensure a high-quality service for its customers.

THE ROAD AHEAD AS TANZANIA EYES A SEMI-INDUSTRIALISED ECONOMY BY 2025

By Ndekana Utouh
Sunday January 26 2020
Dar Es Salaam

The beginning of 2020 marks five years until Tanzania is scheduled to fulfil its development vision to become a middle-income, semi-industrialised economy by 2025.

The Vision – first introduced at the turn of the century – is known to be one of President Magufuli’s top priorities.

The plan is set to create peace and stability, eliminating corruption, while developing a sustainable economy.

Ensuring a steady flow of investment into Tanzania underpins the fulfilment of these goals and the overall vision.

To date, numerous industries have benefited from direct investment. To take one example, telecommunications operators have collectively invested at least TZS 6 trillion into the country.

WHY BANKS SHOULD EMBRACE SOCIAL MEDIA - PART ONE

By Kelvin Mkwawa, Seasoned Banker.

Conventional marketing wisdom long held that a dissatisfied customer tells 10 people about the negative experience. But in today’s digital world, a dissatisfied customer has the tools to tell hundreds or thousands or millions of people thanks to social media platforms. 

According to Jeremy K. Balkin, an expert in the engagement of Millennials in the financial services sector, more than 60% of people (Millennials) today choose to bank on their mobile device first and by 2020 it is estimated that some 1.9 billion people will be banking on mobile. For that reason, banks need to move towards providing faster and more efficient solutions for the entire Millennial generation. 

As technology is gradually changing the banking industry, social media plays an important role in achieving banks’ objectives. Furthermore, in the current banking environment, strategic social communication has become an integral component of how banks build relationships with their customers and communities. 

According to Financial Brand (a digital publication focused on marketing and strategy issues affecting banks), nine out of ten financial institutions in developed markets are using Facebook and at least 50% of them are using at least Twitter or Instagram platforms compared to less than 30% of financial institutions in developing markets.

Social media helps banks to build meaningful relationships with existing clients and engage prospective clients. Social media is also one of the first places that potential clients go to find out more about prospective organizations they want to do business with so if a bank is not on social media platforms, it misses out on opportunities to grow its customers. The bank needs an effective, comprehensive, and profitable social marketing strategy that integrates with the rest of its marketing activities. It’s not just about what social media platforms use, but how to use them and when. Hence the bank needs to define a social media strategy that suits its business.

Unfortunately, many banks in Tanzania are lagging behind in their comprehensive adoption of social media because either they do not understand how to strategically use social media or do not have confidence in the importance of social media. 

CLYDE & CO UPDATER - CAN FOREIGNERS INHERIT LAND IN TANZANIA?

This month's briefing explores the recently proposed amendments to inheritance laws in relation to foreign heirs in Tanzania, with a particular focus on whether foreign heirs could inherit land.

This month’s legal briefing focuses on the Written Laws (Miscellaneous Amendments) (No. 8) Bill 2019 (the Bill), which among other things, proposes amendments to the Probate and Administration of Estates Act (the Probate Act). The Bill was tabled before Parliament for the first reading towards the end of 2019.

This briefing explores the following matters:

• the proposed amendments to the Probate Act and how this may affect the Land Act
• the Emmanuel Marangakis case

Key highlights in the Bill

Section 20 of the Land Act currently provides that non-citizens shall not be allocated or granted land, unless it is for investment purposes. Section 20 of the Land Act further states that a body corporate registered in Tanzania, whose majority shareholders or owners are non-citizens, shall be considered a foreign company for the purpose of the Act.

The High Court of Tanzania in the case of Emmanuel Marangakis Attorney of Anastasios Anagnostou vs The Administrator General, Civil Case No. 1 of 2011 case interpreted section 20 of the Land Act in relation to the ability of non-citizens of Tanzania to occupy and hold land in Tanzania by way of inheritance. The High Court essentially decided that section 20 of the Land Act does not restrict foreigners from occupying land in Tanzania through inheritance. Historically, foreign heirs had been relying on this High Court decision to occupy land by way of inheritance.
