Global Finance Update: Capitec Ups Provisions as It Braces for Inflation, Rate Pressure

As global markets opened on September 30, 2026, central bank signals are shaping investor behaviour across asset classes. Interest rate guidance is one of the most influential forces on investment returns expectations, and our members stay informed to time their portfolio decisions effectively.
