South Africa’s governing ANC wants to broaden the central bank’s mandate to ensure it plays a bigger role in supporting the economy, a change that may require a constitutional amendment it won’t be able to effect on its own.
The ANC’s proposal comes as the economy struggles to recover from the coronavirus pandemic and an ongoing electricity supply crisis that’s curbing output. The South African Reserve Bank implements its inflation-targeting mandate in the interests of balanced and sustainable growth and has repeatedly said obstacles to bolstering economic growth fall outside the scope of monetary policy.
While the Economic Freedom Fighters, the third-largest party, agreed with the ANC on the need for the SARB’s mandate to be changed, the governing party won’t make concessions to the opposition in exchange for their support to amend the constitution, according to Mantashe. The ANC has tried to make changes at the SARB before. It decided in 2017 that the government should take ownership of the privately owned bank, but the process — which requires a change to the Reserve Bank Act and an agreement on the price of shares — has stalled.
The reserve Bank is not there to be plundered by the ANC
No expansion of mandate needed..stop corruption mismanagement & misuse of public funds..& ensure competent ppl are employed..further cut the bloated cabinet & generous perks

Don't need mandate Just some more printing presses
How much money have stolen over the years. Biggest hypocrit, thief. You are a disease for our country.
It must be. You cannot target inflation on the monetary side and create jobs at the same time on the fiscal side.
Very funny.
Brace for a weaker Rand.
