Public Economy
The SCIS’s work on public economies and fiscal policy has transformed the South African debate on economic policy, from one characterised by ideological debates to one based on sound research and evidence.
The SCIS has created a truly independent but analytic space for fiscal policy. Staff members influence policy through their participation on various bodies, including the Presidential Economic Advisory Council, the National Minimum Wage Commission, the Financial and Fiscal Commission and the Presidential State-Enterprise Advisory Council.
