💨 Abstract

The South African Reserve Bank (SARB) is likely to maintain current interest rates during its July 31 policy meeting, though some experts predict a possible rate cut due to economic uncertainty. Factors influencing the decision include global market volatility and pending US tariffs on South African exports. Economists are divided, with some advocating a wait-and-see approach, while others suggest a rate cut is justified due to low inflation.
