Finance minister Enoch Godongwana will take to the podium in parliament to deliver the country’s medium-term budget policy statement (MTBPS).
The statement is more than a fiscal update; it is the government’s signal of how it will steer the economy amid weak growth, heavy debt burdens and high unemployment.
The MTBPS is not just about numbers: it will affect jobs, services, inflation and the cost of living. For markets and international investors, it will form a barometer of fiscal credibility, reform momentum and SA’s ability to improve ratings and restore investor confidence.
