Short Term Issues & Challenges

  • Despite high economic growth, large budget deficits &

Kina depreciaKon of around 36% between 2012 and October 2016, inflaKon remained low at manageable level.

  • Exporters should have taken advantage of the kina

depreciaKon & increased producKon/exports, thus increase FX inflows.

  • Importers & consumers should have adjusted & resort to

domesKcally produced goods/support local producKon, thus reduce FX demand.

  • The Bank has to balance the foreign currency need of the

Government, private sector demand and ensure maintenance of adequate level of foreign exchange reserves for the country to maintain confidence in economy.

Short Term Issues & Challenges

  • Govt’s plan to conKnue funding of priority sectors

through deficit budget is clear.

  • With low revenue coming from LNG project and

decline in internal revenue from various sources, poses a challenge for budgetary financing for 2016 to 2018

  • Govt needs to realise budgeted external financing

given the fiscal space from low external debt stock & debt servicing

  • The Government and the Bank are pursuing it.
  • External financing will provide relief for domesKc

market as main source of borrowing

slide-8
SLIDE 8

Short Term Issues & Challenges

  • Current account surplus did not translate to

foreign exchange inflows, as mining & petroleum companies were allowed to keep export earnings in offshore accounts to meet

  • verseas liabiliKes, under provisions for

accelerated depreciaKon. Allowed under various Development Agreements.

  • Aier the debt service and accelerated

depreciaKon provisions for the PNG LNG project are over, capital account will move into surplus, translaKng into foreign exchange inflows through Gov’t taxes.

Short Term Issues & Challenges

  • There will be a turn-around in the foreign

exchange market, Government revenue will increase.

  • Start up of any pipeline projects (LNG & Mining)

will provide relief to budget & foreign exchange situaKon and support economic growth.

  • Recovery in export prices especially for non-

mineral commodiKes will also support increased employment.

slide-11
SLIDE 11

Short Term Issues & Challenges

  • Good inflows of foreign currencies by exporters
  • Contributed by the resumpKon of Ok Tedi mine in

March 2016, combined with Lihir's increasing producKon and exports, & inflows by other mineral companies.

  • BPNG intervenKons & increased foreign exchange

inflows was sufficient to clear genuine import & service payment orders . However, import orders sKll remain but reduced.

  • New Foreign Exchange DirecKves issued on 30th Sept

2016.

slide-12
SLIDE 12

New Forex DirecKves

Ø All holders of onshore FCAs have to reapply to BPNG by 28th October 2016 Ø All domesKc lending in foreign currency such as trade finance have to be approved by BPNG in line with RegulaKon 6 of the Foreign Exchange Control RegulaKons Ø Spot inflows should only be used to clear spot market orders, & not for forwards and foreign currency trade finance loans Ø DirecKves do not mean a change in the Foreign Exchange (FE) Control regime. Ø All the measures introduced since 2014 are to restore order and ensure a smooth & efficient funcKoning of the FX market, with transparent price senng and some protecKon for consumers.

MEDIUM TO LONG TERM PROSPECTS

  • NEXT SLIDES
slide-14
SLIDE 14

Medium to Long Term Prospects

  • The PNG economy will conKnue to grow in real

terms but at a lower pace (2% to 3%). InflaKon projected to be in the range of 6 to 7%.

  • Clear and direct focus by Gov’t on developing rural

areas, infrastructure, educaKon, health, agriculture, tourism & SME is the right strategy for PNG

  • The Government is focussing on diversifying the

economy to broaden revenue base & to achieve future sustainability of inclusive growth

  • Large integrated projects in agriculture sector & SME

are encouraged. Good iniKaKves already led by Government and landowners.

  • Providing access to innovaKve technology, financing &

markets for agriculture, tourism & SME sectors would increase parKcipaKon by populaKon

slide-15
SLIDE 15

Medium to Long Term Prospects

  • Benefits from past & current investments in priority areas

by Gov’t will be realised

  • The non-mineral sectors have the potenKal for inclusive

growth and employment opportuniKes

  • Need appropriate trade and investment policies to help

boost growth in the non-mineral sectors.

  • Need improvements in public uKliKes & services sector to

facilitate developments in the non-mineral sector

  • Would reduce reliance on the non-renewable resources

sector.

Unlocking to realize Import SubsKtuKon

¥ PNG’s annual imports of agricultural products amounts to about K0.2 billion in 2015. ¥ The Government’s plan to grow the domesKc agriculture sector through iniKaKves that includes; Ø reducing dependence on imports, Ø diversifica;on and improvement to the infrastructure and Ø transmission of inputs to farms. ¥ In addiKon, developing the manufacturing sector (eg: small industrial products) by supporKng SMEs is posiKve. ¥ Over 80% of PNG’s populaKon are involved in subsistence agriculture & import subsKtuKon will;

Ø improve the livelihoods of the mass popula;on & provide food security Ø help relieve PNG of its current FX pressure.

Medium to Long Term Prospects

  • Growth to be supported by pipeline of investment,

including 2 major LNG projects-Penyang & Papua LNG, and 2 major mining projects-Wafi-Golpu & Frieda River Gold mines, which will have posiKve impact on the economy like the PNG LNG project did.

  • Lessons learnt from extensive concessions given to

extracKve projects in non-renewable sector should be LIMITED in future.

  • Use of SWF to save excess revenue from non-

renewable resources developments for future use & generaKon

slide-19
SLIDE 19

Medium to Long Term Prospects

  • Some necessary infrastructures to enable inclusive growth already established

include;

– Improved telecommunica;on – Strong & stable financial system – Improved Na;onal Payments System – AML ini;a;ves

  • Need for improvement in public service delivery mechansim.
  • For wider benefit of our populaKon, we need to reduce the proporKon of our

unbanked populaKon (around 70% now) into modern financial services sector

  • Great need for financial educaKon & literacy of our populaKon
  • All these iniKaKves in place and in future should provide a plarorm for greater

parKcipaKon of our populaKon to start a journey towards improved well being and prosperity by sharing in future economic growth of our country.
