INFLATION TARGET

1st November 2024

Font size: - +

South Africa’s official inflation-target band is 3% to 6%, but South African Reserve Bank governor Lesetja Kganyago has made it clear for some time now that his target is actually the mid-point. In a recent speech, Kganyago acknowledged concern about the employment and growth costs of pursuing a lower target. However, he went on to quote studies indicating that there had been “little or no cost to getting inflation to 4.5%”, the takeaway being that he has no intention of applying the brakes while he is behind the monetary-policy wheel.
