JOHANNESBURG, June 4 (Reuters) - South Africa's National Treasury intends to stick to a balanced fiscal stance under a coalition government, its director-general said on Tuesday, after the African National Congress lost its majority in last week's election.
"I think that our fiscal strategy is achievable, even in a coalition environment ... because it's quite balanced," Duncan Pieterse told Reuters in an interview.
"A balanced macro-fiscal stance becomes more defensible in an uncertain political environment. And we intend to continue managing the fiscal stance along those lines," he added.
