MANY SOUTH African exporters have little knowledge of the country's fiscal situation and what the government has to offer manufacturers, which often leaves them tongue-tied when faced with a barrage of questions on overseas visits, says Gill Marcus, deputy governor of the South African Reserve Bank. She will address these issues when she speaks at the annual meeting of the Exporters Club of South Africa (Johannesburg Chapter) on October 25 at the Deloitte & Touche Auditorium in Woodmead at 17h30. Her talk is titled: "The world in turmoil - how well is the South African economy holding up?"
