Ramaphosa highlights the investment prospects being unlocked by ‘irreversible’ reforms

President Cyril Ramaphosa used the 2026 edition of the South Africa Investment Conference (SAIC) to highlight the new prospects being opened to domestic and foreign investors by the country’s ongoing economic reforms, which he described as “irreversible”. The sixth edition of the SAIC drew 1 200 delegates from 50 countries and is the first such gathering to be hosted since 2023, as well as the first since the formation of the multi-party Government of National Unity, which Ramaphosa leads.
