About Monetary Policy Forums:
The South African Reserve Bank (SARB) is responsible for monetary policy in South Africa. SARB uses several channels to communicate with and create a better understanding of monetary policy among its stakeholders, including the public. One of these communication channels is the Monetary Policy Forums (MPFs). These MPFs are meetings that are held in each province in South Africa every six months.
At these meetings, a panel comprised of senior SARB representatives present recent domestic and international developments that have impacted on inflation, and that motivate the rationale behind the SARB’s monetary policy stance. Relevant topics such as the inflation outlook, the factors impacting it, and the Bank’s inflation and economic growth forecasts are presented to the public. Attendees are invited to comment in response to recent policy developments.
Members of the media who wish to attend should please contact Leisel Radebe on 012 313 4754 or email: Leisel.Radebe@resbank.co.za or Nosipho Theyise on 012 313 3465 or email: Nosipho.Theyise@resbank.co.za.
