Summary

In this episode of Economic Justice Matters by the Institute for Economic Justice, we unpack whether the South African Reserve Bank has positioned South Africa's monetary policy effectively. We are joined by Gina Schoeman (Economist at Citibank), Dr Roelof Botha (Economist) and Dr Mzwanele Ntshwanti (Economist at IEJ) to unpack SA's 3% inflation target, the effect of interest rates and other economic factors in South Africa that could be hindering or promoting growth.
