We are pleased to publish a new Public Finance Chartpack for South Africa. This chartpack assesses South Africa’s fiscal landscape, demonstrating how EconData’s Public Finance module can be used to keep sophisticated public finance analysis up to date.
The chartpack is publicly available here.
As far as we know EconData’s Public Finance module is the only database of comprehensive South African public finance data available in an easy-to-use form. You can use it to automate any workflows that use such data, whether you work in excel, Python or R. The dataset is incredibly detailed: it has about 25 million rows of data and our cleaned and structured version almost 120 thousand series in 2024 alone. See the user guide here. Get in touch if you are interested in subscribing to EconData.
For those interested in our policy research and automated analytics, feel free to contact us for a demonstration.
The Public Finance Module and Public Finance Chartpack was made possible by the efforts of Byron Botha, Aidan Horn, Jan-Hendrik Pretorius, Lisa Martin, Jonathan Jayes, Sinead Morrow, Jacques Quass De Vos, Hendri van Zyl and the rest of the Codera team.
