The South African Reserve Bank (the Bank) has achieved intermittent excellence \nin its quest to contain inflation since its establishment in 1921. This long \nexperience highlights important experiences with inflation, which can be put to \ngood use by central banks in other emerging-market economies. The conclusion is \nthat there is no substitute for the long-run use of sound monetary policy in the \nquest to contain inflation
