He has pursued the approach of improving economic and social justice in the country, whilst simultaneously laying out measures aiming at further modernisation of physical and regulatory infrastructures. This particular budget speech is under scrutiny by all segments of the economy and society, given forthcoming general elections in Mauritius.

This budget is taking place in a global environment characterised by geopolitical tensions and by trade wars between leading economies, notably US and China, with potential rounds of retaliatory measures ahead.
