Stephen Grootes speaks to Kevin Lings, Chief Economist at Stanlib, about the economic consequences of a prolonged period of elevated oil prices. Renewed tensions in the Middle East have reignited concerns that fuel-importing economies, particularly across Africa, may be forced to keep interest rates higher for longer as inflationary pressures persist.

In other interviews, Hayley Ivins-Downes, Managing Executive for Real Estate at Lightstone Property talks about new data showing that foreign buyers snapped up an estimated R153 billion worth of residential property in Cape Town over the past decade, highlighting the growing influence of international demand in the city’s luxury housing market, while another concerning trend shows that the number of young South Africans buying homes has fallen sharply from 108,000 in 2005 to just 45,000 today.
