Reserve Bank of Australia

On Dec. 20, Treasury issued a consultation paper seeking public input on the cash mandate’s scope, compliance, and accessibility strategies.

The Opposition said now was not the right time to ’sack and stack' the Reserve Bank Board.

Despite inflation falling from its 2022 peak, underlying inflation remains high, with the RBA indicating it won’t hit its target until 2026.

The move comes after the Greens secured key concessions from the Labor government.

RBA holds cash rate steady as tight labour market delays inflation’s return to target, projecting stability by 2026.

RBA says current forecasts do not predict inflation returning sustainably to the target midpoint of 2.5 percent until 2026.

Good news for out-of-work Australians is likely to translate as bad news for those with mortgages.

The IMF believes Australia’s economy is expected to recover gradually, with growth projected to begin picking up in the latter half of 2024.

Across Australia, there were 330,000 job vacancies in August 2024, down by 18,000 from May.

While inflation has fallen within the target 2 percent range, the RBA chief has already warned that this would likely be temporary.

Bullock stated that Australia sets its interest rates based on domestic circumstances, noting that we have been less restrictive compared to some others.

RBA says inflation has significantly decreased since its 2022 peak, thanks to higher interest rates that have aligned aggregate demand and supply.

Finance Minister Katy Gallagher said the party has gone ‘out of control.’

The increase in job numbers, almost double what was forecast, is positive news for the unemployed, but may diminish expectations of an RBA rate cut.

The number of people working full-time fell.

An expert says RBA’s slow pace has left inflation high, while the Fed’s strategy succeeded. He suggested the RBA to reconsider its gradual approach.

The opposition warns the reform may result in a ’sack and stack' approach.

The opposition pressed the government on the different of strategy with the Reserve Bank.

The prime minister defended the RBA’s monetary policy, adding the government has many schemes assisting households with cost of living.

The governor said inflation was still too high.
