The two-pot retirement reform is not expected to have an inflationary impact in 2024 under its moderate withdrawal (deemed more likely) and high withdrawal scenarios. The reform is expected to have a minor inflationary effect in 2025 and 2026. The SARB’s core model showed that this could result in higher interest rates of 20 basis points in 2025 and 40 basis points in 2026 under the moderate withdrawal scenario. In the higher withdrawal scenario, interest rate increases of 60 basis points in 2025 and 90 basis points in 2026 are expected.

China’s share of US imports has declined since 2018 on a rolling three-year basis, from a high of 21% to about 15%.
