Guidance Note 1 of 2026 on the Status of Previously Issued Guidance Notes
The South African Reserve Bank issued Guidance Note 1 of 2026 to confirm the continued effectiveness of thirty-two previously published guidance notes while automatically deeming all others withdrawn or replaced. Banks, controlling companies, and eligible institutions must retain copies of the listed notes, ensure their auditors review them, and return a jointly signed acknowledgement of receipt to the Reserve Bank. This annual notification mechanism preserves original guidance note identifiers and streamlines regulatory compliance by clearly delineating which directives remain in force for the ensuing year.
