Reserve Bank battling "dark forces" in South African economy
Efficient Group chief economist Dawie Roodt said the South African Reserve Bank (SARB) could try to prevent inflation from getting out of hand, but, eventually, the structural issues in the economy – “the dark forces” – will prevail.
The SARB’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) increased South Africa’s interest rate by 50 basis points on 25 May.
