The South African market is ripe for investment. The uncertainty of election time is over, and the interest rate hikes have stopped as the South African Reserve Bank has opted to leave the repo rate untouched. As such, interest rates remain at their September 2024 level of 11.5%.
Furthermore, experts predict that interest rate cuts may be on the horizon (according to Investec chief economist Annabel Bishop, an interest rate cut in September 2024 is likely).
