Country Overview: A Key Hub in the Pacific
OverviewOverview LocationLocation
Fiji has a well-educated and mobile population of approximately 837,000 largely concentrated in two main cities of Suva and Lautoka (literacy rates in excess of 90%)
The main sources of foreign exchange revenue for the Fiji economy are tourism, agriculture, and mining
Given Fiji’s location and relative size, it serves as an important hub amongst its South Pacific neighbors, its positioning consolidated with the recent redrawing of the major international shipping channel from Asia to Australasia via Fiji 3
Fiji’s main trading partners are Australia, New Zealand, the US, the Eurozone, Japan and increasingly China
Fiji has a Sovereign Rating of B1 and B- from Moody’s and S&P respectively Fiji is an archipelago of approximately 330 islands in the South Pacific approximately 2,700 km’s east of Australia

The Key Drivers of Fiji’s Economic Growth
Removing inefficiency from recurring government expenditure and re-weighting spending toward key capital projects that will have a lasting social and economic impact on the country
Broadening the tax base while removing industry subsidies and concessions that have created economic distortion An open policy toward foreign investment combined with a pragmatic approach to providing incentives to attracting investment into key strategic
industries A significant review of land usage with a view to creating an available stock of land for commercial use within key industry sectors as well as creating
substantial scale efficiencies within the agriculture and forestry sectors An independent Reserve Bank that has met its objectives of rebuilding and maintaining foreign currency reserves as well as reducing domestic
inflationary pressure and maintaining financial stability throughout the financial crisis (as noted in a recent IMF report) Improving trend in the balance of payments coming from increased foreign exchange income from tourism and export industries as well as increased
foreign investment Strong rebound in tourism supported by a significant expansion in Fiji’s geographic tourist catchments, particularly from Asia, diversifying from a
traditional reliance on Australia and New Zealand Significant increase in exploration activity by major international mining companies with substantial projects currently at a post-feasibility or final
approval stage in gold, copper and bauxite with untapped opportunities in natural gas, oil and mineral sands2
20 to 30 year revenue generating opportunities that have been untapped within the forestry sector3

sectors Within other sectors of the economy further FX generating activities exist, with the opportunity for this to increase significantly
Export Garment sector and Fiji Water are two current examples of manufacturing activities generating FX reserves Southern Cross fibre optic cable runs through Fiji connecting Australasia to the US and provides service industry-related FX
generating opportunities1

Fiscal Discipline with a Focus on Key Economic & Social Infrastructure
Widening of the Fijian tax base with increases to VAT and the introduction of a capital gains tax, while industry subsidies and concessions have been removed to reduce economic distortions in the economy
Significant enhancements in the efficiency of government spending via an active reduction in the size of the civil service with a lowering of the retirement age to 55 from 60 as well as an increasing focus on the privatisation of state assets that will benefit from the introduction of private sector expertise
The government is committed to achieving a balanced budget by 20151
A major refocusing of government expenditure toward the development of key social and economic infrastructure which will have a lasting impact on future generations (representing 28% of total spending in the 2011 Budget), many of these projects will receive bilateral support from foreign government and multilateral agencies including ADB and China EXIM

Low Levels of External Debt
Total Government Debt (FJD mn)1
Government Debt ( % of GDP)1
Fiji has an unblemished debt repayment history since its creation as an independent Sovereign nation in October 1970
The government’s estimated outstanding debt for 2010 is FJD 3,448mn, equivalent to 58.9% of GDP
Relatively low proportion of external debt with in excess of 80% of the government’s debt denominated in FJD, placed into domestic portfolios in tenors of up to 30 years, limiting the country’s exposure to foreign exchange risk and aiding in the development of a more vibrant capital market1
The government’s international bond issue of USD 150mn matures in September 2011.
Additional external debt is provided in the form of concessionary lending from a range of bilateral and multilateral institutions including the ADB and JBIC to name a few
The government’s medium-term debt target is 40% of GDP1
The government is committed to achieving a medium-term improvement in the international credit ratings
