## Resource

On this week’s Bizskoops: The South African Reserve Bank is set to decide on the repo rate this week, and we discuss the possible factors influencing its decision and the likely outcomes. Chris Hattingh of the Centre for Risk Analysis also explains how the global bond selloff is increasing South Africa’s borrowing costs. Professor Waldo Krugell discusses how the effects of the Middle East conflict are being felt across several sectors of the economy globally, not only through rising oil prices. In international business news, Sam Altman, CEO OpenAI says artificial intelligence is unlikely to trigger the large-scale job losses he once feared. There is also good news for investors who bought shares in Stefanutti Stocks in 2020. We continue our conversation with Pieter Wasserfall of JustMoney, who explains why consumers should avoid taking on new debt and unpacks stokvels as a practical way of saving money.
