flag South Africa's inflation rose to 3.4% in September 2025, driven by higher housing, utility, and food costs.

flag South Africa's annual inflation rose to 3.4% in September 2025, up from 3.3% in August, driven by higher prices for housing, utilities, and food, both increasing 4.5% year-on-year. flag The rise fell just below the 3.5% forecast, with core inflation at 3.2%. flag Despite the uptick, economists expect inflation to remain stable due to a stronger rand, falling inflation expectations, and a weak economy. flag The South African Reserve Bank paused its rate-cutting cycle in September after three cuts in 2025, with further reductions expected in November.
