# Business Leadership South Africa says the economy’s 0.2-percent contraction between April and June is a reality check on South Africa’s fragile economy. In her weekly newsletter, the organisation’s CEO, Busisiwe Mavuso, says weak investment remains a major challenge, with fixed investment at 13.6-percent of the gross domestic product, while government and state-owned companies are falling short of investment targets. Mavuso welcomes Transnet’s 4.6-billion-rand profit as a positive sign of improving financial stability.
