What Budget Speech history can teach us 23.02.2022

There are many opinions this week on the Budget Speech but one that I would like to highlight is a piece written by Hillary Joffe for Business Day. There is talk of a “good news” budget with the R200 billion tax windfall that relieves some of the pressure on the Minister. But Joffe's article gives an important history lesson and takes one back to the 2007 Budget. * The Economics Minute is supporte...

Wat ons van historiese Begrotingsredes kan leer 23.02.2022

Daar is die week baie opinies oor die Begrotingsrede maar een wat ek graag wil uitlig is ʼn stuk wat Hillary Joffe vir Business Day geskryf het. Daar is sprake van ʼn “goeie nuus” begroting met die R200 miljard belasting meevaller wat op die druk op die Minister effens verlig. Maar Joffe se artikel gee ʼn belangrike geskiedenisles en neem mens terug na die 2007 Begroting. * Die Ekonomie Minuut word o...

How to listen to the Budget Speech, like an economist 22.02.2022

Hoe om na die Begrotingsrede te luister, soos 'n ekonoom 22.02.2022

More middag lewer die Minister van Finansies die Begrotingsrede. Dit kan maklik klink soos een dêm ding na die ander: ekonomiese vooruitsigte, klomp los bestedingsbeloftes, en dan die sondebelastings. Maar Die Ekonomie Minuut het raad as jy soos ʼn ekonoom wil luister. * Die Ekonomie Minuut word ondersteun deur die NWU Sakeskool.

What reforms do we need? 21.02.2022

It's Budget Week and there are divergent expectations from Finance Minister Enogh Gdongwana. Economists would like to see the SONA's plans translated into spending and tax proposals.

Watter hervormings het ons nodig? 21.02.2022

Dit is Begrotingsweek en daar is uiteenlopende verwagtinge van die Minister van Finansies, Enogh Gdongwana. Ekonome wil graag sien hoe die SONA se planne omgeskakel word in besteding- en belastingvoorstelle. Ek praat gereeld oor die hervormings wat gemaak moet word en gelukkig het die IMF al daaroor gedink en aanbevelings gemaak in ʼn onlangse verslag. * Die Ekonomie Minuut word ondersteun deur die...

Brandstofprys verligting in die Begroting? 16.02.2022
