Policy hold: Reserve Bank of Australia’s board held its cash rate at 3.6%. — Reuters
SYDNEY: Australia’s central bank is holding its key interest rate steady in a widely anticipated decision, warning of stronger inflationary pressures in the economy and re-affirming that future moves will be guided by incoming data.
The Reserve Bank of Australia’s (RBA) board held its cash rate at 3.6% yesterday after consumer prices surged beyond expectations last quarter, while the labour market remains tight.
