South Africa’s 2026 annual inflation outlook centers on the 4.4% average projected by the South African Reserve Bank, amid a recent fuel-driven spike to 5.0% in June that eased to 4.3% in July. Geopolitical pressures from the Iran-related conflict and higher oil prices via the Strait of Hormuz lifted transport costs sharply earlier in the year, prompting a May rate hike to 7% and upward forecast revisions, though the MPC held policy steady in July while noting improving but still-elevated readings above the 3% target. A September central bank study reinforces that expectations have anchored near 3.6% among professionals, with a 78% probability of staying within the 2–4% band absent further shocks. Traders’ heaviest positioning around 4.4–4.7% reflects this baseline alongside residual upside risks from energy and currency volatility ahead of the September 23 MPC decision and subsequent CPI releases.
