# The International Monetary Fund says South Africa’s growth outlook is expected to remain stable in the near term and continue to improve on the back of strengthened policy frameworks and ongoing structural reforms. The IMF expects the country’s economic growth this year to equal that of 2025 at 1.1-percent, however, this remains below the South African Reserve Bank’s prediction of 1.2-percent. Meanwhile, the IMF has trimmed its global growth forecast to three-percent, down from its previous forecast of 3.1-percent, saying the global economy has shown resilience.
