WATCH | Budget 2022: our pre-budget panel discussion

The 2022 pre-Budget panel discussion gave the finance minister an idea of what local and international stakeholders wanted to see from the Budget speech in Parliament. Panellists were Razia Khan, chief economist: Africa & Middle East at Standard Chartered; Kyle Mandy, partner: tax technical & policy at PwC; Iraj Abedian, founder and CEO of Pan African Investment & Research Services (and a member of Saica's National Tax Committee); and Colin Coleman, former Goldman Sachs CEO for sub-Saharan Africa.

The budget aims to strike a balance between competing national spending priorities, and it comes at a time when SA’s economic recovery faces fresh challenges. Business Day TV spoke to Deborah Tickle, Saica member and adjunct professor at the University of Cape Town, about what she expects from the speech.
