Sacci’s business confidence index declined to 91.8 in March, the lowest level since August 2017

Jitters ahead of the national elections have weighed on business confidence, dragging it to its lowest level since August.

The rand, load-shedding, the electricity tariff increase and an ease in manufacturing output weighed on the index.
