Summary

A technical assistance mission from the IMF’s Statistics Department visited South Africa during October 7-18, 2024, to support the authorities in improving compilation and dissemination of Government finance statistics (GFS) and public sector debt statistics (PSDS). The mission worked with the South African Reserve Bank, National Treasury and Statistics South Africa on a number of issues including the classification and definition of the general government, the classification of specific transactions in line with the Government Finance Statistics Manual 2014, the internal consistency of data, and the consistency of fiscal data published by the three different institutions.
