The South African Reserve Bank, in collaboration with the South African Foreign Exchange Committee (SAFXC), has launched a Public Register for foreign exchange (FX) market participants to publish their Statements of Commitment (SoCs) to the FX Global Code.

^{9 October 2026}

The register provides a central, publicly accessible repository that promotestransparency and broader adoption of the FX Global Code in South Africa and the South African Development Community (SADC) region. It is primarily intended for wholesale FX market participants operating in South Africa. Market participants outside South Africa may formally request inclusion, provided their SoCs comply withstandard FX Global Code format (statement_of_commitment.pdf). The register will be linked to the Global Index of Public Registers.
