The South African Reserve Bank will be webcasting the upcoming press conference to announce the decision of the Monetary Policy Committee live on the bank's website. MPC statements are monitored closely, both domestically and internationally, and webcasting should extend reach to those audiences who cannot view the SABC broadcasts.
Mr TT Mboweni, Governor of the South African Reserve Bank, will begin addressing the media at approximately 15h00 Tuesday, 22 September 2009. The duration of the press conference will be approximately 30 minutes.
Visit http://www.reservebank.co.za or alternatively go direct to the link at http://results.antfarm.co.za/sarb/MPC/ on the day. Access guidelines, software and system requirements to view the webcast will be detailed on this page. A facility for posting questions to the Governor will be provided.
A link to the archive footage will be on the bank's website within four hours of the broadcast.
