On #TheBusinessBrief, we spoke with Wandile Mazibuko about the interim agreement between the United States and Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and what it could mean for South Africa. The deal, aimed at ending conflict and restarting negotiations over Iran’s nuclear program, could ease pressure on global oil supply routes that were previously disrupted when the strait handled about a fifth of the world’s oil flow. We unpack how potential stability in the region may influence fuel prices, global trade, and ultimately the cost of living in South Africa.

Listen to the full conversation for expert insights on what this means for our economy.
