Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana’s announcement of a VAT enhance to 16% over the subsequent two years has raised severe considerations for South African households.
In an unique interview on eNCA, Annaline van der Poel, COO of Debt Rescue, explains the actual impression of this hike. She factors out that whereas 0.5% could not sound like a lot, it’ll have an effect on nearly every part we purchase, aside from a handful of VAT-exempt items, making each day bills much more unaffordable.
