Making Sense | South Africa’s economic “pulse” before budget 2026

In this episode of Making Sense, Gareth Edwards sits down with Chris Hattingh from the Centre for Risk Analysis to read the country’s economic “pulse” properly: what’s driving the optimism, what might be temporary, and what has to change for growth to actually reach jobs, services, and daily life. Because the budget isn’t just a speech. It’s a signal. And the signal matters most when the cycle turns.
