South Africa recorded foreign direct investment outflows of R21.0-billion in the third quarter of 2025, down from outflows of R73.5-billion in the second quarter, central bank data showed on Monday.
The South African Reserve Bank said in its Quarterly Bulletin that the outflows were mainly due to Anglo American's sale of its remaining equity in Valterra Platinum.
The outflows were partially offset by an increase in foreign shareholding in a media and entertainment company. French media group Canal+ took control of South African broadcaster MultiChoice in the third quarter.
Portfolio investment inflows slowed to R40.7-billion in July-September from inflows of R69.4-billion in April-June.
