With CPIX inflation currently stable around 5% this leaves a real rate growth of almost 10% year on year.
Whilst the CPIX might still be in the target range the increase in mortgage advances and the volatility in both the international oil prices and the foreign exchange leads ABSA to believe that the MPC might increase interest rates by another 50 basis points later this week. It is expected that the rate will therefore stabilize at this highpoint of 13% for the remainder of the year.
