BUSINESS MAVERICK: A vibrant month: Pension boost expected to lift South African retail sales for February

The BankservAfrica Take-home and Private Pensions report for February, calculated by Economists.co.za, forecasts a consumer rebound for the month.retail trade sales fell 3.5% year on year“In February, government pensioners got extra payments, which resulted in nearly a million pension payments paid to an estimated 650,000 private pensioners in the BankservAfrica Private Pension Index .

“Total private pensions paid increased by 61% in real terms and added about R3-billion to the total spending in February, which equals the R3-billion that the ‘new state of disaster’ grant pays to six million unemployed people. This will help the economy as the money is likely to help quite a few informal businesses.”

“The total nominal increase for all deducted money flowing into bank accounts of workers and private pensioners was 9.2%. This should result in a good consumer expenditure reaction for the South African economy for at least February,” the report says.

The best choice I've made this year was investing in cryptocurrency and forex trading and earning from home. With the help of Jasonsallm_1 I've been earning $ 23k weekly I've never regretted this decision. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
