Beschreibung

In Financial Conversations with Blessing Ndabula, they discuss the recent repo rate increase to 7% (raised by 25 basis points in late May 2026) and what it means for ordinary South Africans. The hike makes borrowing more expensive—home loans, car finance, and credit cards will cost more—while savings accounts may offer higher returns; it’s aimed at containing inflation but puts extra pressure on household budgets and may slow down spending and property buying. Expect clear, practical breakdowns on how to protect your finances and make smarter money moves in this high-rate environment. #FinancialConversations #BlessingNdabula #RepoRateIncrease #SouthAfricaEconomy #MoneyTalks #FinancialLiteracy #InflationFight #SmartMoneyMoves Heart to Heart [https://www.radiopulpit.co.za/shows/heart-to-heart/]
