In 2025, finance was the largest industry in Gauteng (29%) and the Western Cape (28%), while mining dominated in the Northern Cape (30%) and North West (28%). #GDP #StatsSA #EconomySA

Gauteng was the largest provincial economy, contributing 32,5% to South African GDP.

All provincial economies expanded in 2025, with Western Cape recording the highest growth rate.

In 2025, Northern Cape had the highest GDP per capita of R146 888

For decades, Stats SA has expanded GDP coverage to include informal, illegal and illicit activities. The 2022 base year adds key activities such as illegal mining, e-hailing services and illegal gambling, ensuring GDP better reflects the full economy. #GDP #StatsSA

The non-observed economy accounted for just over a quarter of economic activity in the construction industry. The finance industry recorded the lowest prevalence of non-observed economic activity, at 2,1%.

GDP rebasing shows South Africa’s economy is larger than previously estimated. Revised GDP growth rate for 2022 is 2.2% (up from 2.1%), while the economy in the 2022 base year is estimated to be 4.9% larger. #GDP #StatsSA

Rebasing and benchmarking are done to ensure better estimates of GDP.

Rebasing updates the base year to reflect modern economic structures and relative prices while benchmarking harmonises discrepancies between high frequency and periodic data sets.

The update has resulted in an upward revision of the economy's size, changes to the structure of industries, and better measurement of the non-observed economy.
