flag South Africa's economy grew by 1.1% in 2025, the strongest annual expansion since 2022, with the fourth quarter rising 0.4%—marking five consecutive quarters of growth. flag Expansion was led by services including finance, trade, and personal services, along with gains in agriculture and government spending. flag Household consumption and investment in capital goods also rose, though manufacturing declined, and net exports subtracted from growth. flag The government cited ongoing reforms and public-private partnerships as key drivers, while challenges like high unemployment, regulatory delays, and external risks remain.
