Australia’s central bank won’t wait for inflation to return to the midpoint of its 2-3% target before cutting interest rates, Governor Michele Bullock told a parliamentary panel on Friday, suggesting the board is open to beginning an easing cycle later this year. “There’s a question that comes about when do we reduce the restrictiveness of monetary policy to neutral, and do we have to be in the band at 2.5% before we think about doing that? No, I don’t believe we do,” Bullock told lawmakers on Friday in response to a question. “But ...

RBA GOVERNOR BULLOCK: RATE CUTS POSSIBLE EVEN IF INFLATION OUTSIDE 2-3% TARGET BAND

Chair and members of the Committee. This is my first appearance before the Committee as Governor. I have of course been here before, first as Assistant Governor, Financial System and more recently as Deputy Governor, so I am familiar with the process. These hearings are an important part of the accountability process for the Reserve Bank. Like Governors before me, I welcome the opportunity to answer your questions, as do my colleagues. Quite a bit has changed at the RBA since we last appeared before the Committee in August 2023. My seven-year term as Governor started last September and a new Deputy Governor, who has been appointed from outside the RBA, takes up duties next week. We have a new Statement on the Conduct of Monetary Policy, agreed between the Reserve Bank Board and the Treasurer, which makes explicit our mandate for price stability and full employment and requires us to explain regularly how we are meeting these objectives. We have had the first of our Board meetings under the new format – eight meetings a year, each over an afternoon and the following morning. The media statement following the decision on Tuesday was issued by the Board rather than the Governor and I held my first media conference, which will be a regular occurrence following each Board meeting. The RBA also released its Statement on Monetary Policy at the same time as the monetary policy decision, rather than a few days later as in the past. The Statement on Monetary Policy sets out our assessment of current economic conditions, our forecasts and risks around them, and the key issues featuring in the Board’s monetary policy decision. On our previous timetable, the Statement on Monetary Policy would have been released while this hearing was taking place. I hope this change has been valuable in enhancing the transparency of our decision on Tuesday and that it was also of some benefit for you all. post:

RBA GOVERNOR BULLOCK: NO CONCERNS ABOUT FALLING BEHIND IN INFLATION FIGHT

Thank you for the invitation to speak at AusPayNet’s annual summit. The payments landscape is changing rapidly, with new business models and technologies entering the space. The industry is also moving from legacy systems towards new platforms that can deliver payment services that are faster, safer and more convenient. We therefore need to modernise our regulatory architecture and payments infrastructure to support these innovations, and we have been working with the Government to update the regulatory framework. This morning, I ...

Australia’s central bank is in a period where it needs to be “a little bit careful” in balancing efforts to bring down consumer prices without driving the jobless rate up too high, Governor Michele Bullock said. “We want to ensure we keep inflation under control and we bring it back down to our band,” the Reserve Bank chief said in a panel discussion on Tuesday in Hong Kong, referring to the 2-3% target. “We also need to do that in the context of not imposing on the economy too much and raising the unemployment rate” too high. The ...
