One of South Africa's leading economists Christ Hart has warned that the economy will not remain sheltered from what is happening in the rest of the world.
There is currently a massive fallout as Europe forced the Greek government to impose austerity measures to mitigate the country's escalating debt and guarantee loan paybacks.
Hart said he is convinced local consumers will have to curb their spending even more.
"With the turmoil that we have seen in the global economy, it means that people probably will button their belts and should tighten their belts even if the economic circumstances look a bit better," he said.
