The scope of their work included: • Overall review of the business case – this work was intended to be finalised mid October 2012. The final report was only submitted mid November 2012. • Stress Testing – this was included as part of the overall review of the business case. • Capital adequacy relief Current status on capitalisation

  4. The review of the business case by PwC highlighted the following: • The model was not resilient enough to potentially adverse changes in the economic environment • MDIC would breach FSB Solvency Assessment and Management (SAM) Interim Capital Requirements after a period of time • The model could be sustainable if appropriately designed • National Treasury engaged PwC at the end of November 2012 to make the necessary adjustments to the business case to meet SAM Interim Capital Requirements and to make the entity self sustainable Current status on capitaliSation…cont.
