SouthScan Ltd is a UK-based company set up to aid understanding of the dynamic processes of change in Africa.
					
				
				
The SouthScan service on South Africa and the Southern and Central African region is a premium political and economic analysis service established in 1986, publishing for our clients impartial reports from Johannesburg and other regional centres, and from Brussels, London and Washington. Our analysis is forward-looking and geared to the needs of business, non-governmental and government policy strategists.
						
						
Our political and economic reports are compiled by experienced and well-placed analysts. At critical junctures we carry rolling news and analysis on our website.
