A Closer Look at SA's Economic Impact on Local Mid-Market Businesses.

Grant Thornton’s International Business Report (IBR), known as the SA Business Pulse Locally was launched in 1992 and speaks with more than 10,000 midmarket business leaders across 29 economies annually. In South Africa, they interviewed around 100 mid-market business leaders.

The business pulse is a unique index that tracks the health of the global mid-market using data from the longest-running mid-market research study globally – the IBR. Put, simply, it is a clever lens through which you can look at all the existing IBR data and immediately see the health of the midmarket, as well as spot important changes and key historical trends. It also allows users to compare results across countries, regions, and various sectors to get the world’s most comprehensive view of the mid-market.
