“South Africa's finance minister ruled out major tax changes in the nation's budget next month and was optimistic that its negotiators can secure a trade deal with the US, despite current tensions.”

“Godongwana described this exposure as a national risk, one that could undermine the gains achieved through years of economic reform and consolidation.”

“South Africa's (SA) team at the 2026 World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland, showcased the country's recent economic reforms and progress in attracting investment.”

“The number one risk for South Africa's economy is the geopolitical situation,”

“Fiscal consolidation is a necessary but insufficient condition for growth.”
