AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

US Tariffs Pressure: The US Trade Representative has proposed tariffs on all South African goods after finding Pretoria failed to effectively enforce bans on forced-labour imports; hearings are set for July 7 as oil prices stay high amid US-Iran tensions. HIV Prevention Rollout: South Africa launched Lenacapavir, a twice-yearly HIV prevention injection, at 360 public facilities across six provinces, aiming to reach three million people over three years. Migration Crisis Response: Cabinet has ruled out any “national shutdown” over anti-immigration protests, while business groups warn xenophobic violence is damaging trade and diplomatic ties across Africa. Xenophobia Fallout: Nigeria has started screening for a voluntary repatriation of over 1,000 Nigerians from South Africa, with waivers to avoid detention for some immigration-related offences. Credit Boost: Fitch upgraded South Africa’s sovereign rating to BB from BB-, citing prudent fiscal management and lower-than-expected debt, though investment grade remains out of reach. Corruption Watch: Cape Town police widened a R1.4m bribe probe with searches and seized devices linked to municipal figures and a contractor. Regional Integration: SADC adopted legal instruments in Victoria Falls, including a tourism univisa and pooled procurement for medicines.
