It's a Reserve Bank cash rate decision week, and the only issue seems to be how big will the cut be.
The Reserve Bank is expected to cut the official cash rate this week - what will it mean for home loans, and is it a good time to fix your mortgage repayments? Money correspondant Susan Edmonds spoke with Corin Dann.
It's a Reserve Bank cash rate decision week, and the only issue seems to be how big will the cut be.
There was, in my view some significant misdirection contained in the Reserve Bank's recently released Financial Stability Review, released on Thursday, which they say provides a comprehensive assessment of the health and resilience of Australia's financial system.All up they say that Australia's financial system remains well positioned to navigate a period of elevated global uncertainty, … Continue reading "Everything Is Fine Folks; Just Look Over Here! But…."
In this episode of SB Talks, CEO Vincent O'Neill and CIO Nick Ryder, unpack the Reserve Bank's decision to hold rates at 3.6%, following three cuts earlier this year. They explore what's behind the RBA's cautious stance, rising services inflation, stronger consumer spending, and signs of renewed momentum in the housing market. The conversation shifts to the US government shutdown, where a deepening political standoff could stretch on for weeks, highlighting the economic toll drawing on past shutdowns, and the estimated $400 million daily hit to the US economy. They discuss how this, along with tariffs and other policy moves, adds complexity to the global outlook. As we enter the final quarter of 2025, Vincent and Nick take stock of market sentiment, strong corporate earnings, and the ongoing AI investment wave.

The US Government shut down overnight and private jobs data is weak, so bond yields fell and gold rose. The Reserve Bank of India holds rates, but is seen cutting again soon. And Australian house prices jump in September. In our Deep-Dive interview, ANZ International Economist Kishti Sen analyses what's been supporting Papua New Guinea's currency, and how a wave of foreign investment is set to help the nation's economy.

1.The Reserve Bank of India's interest rate decision, Today,(October 1) will likely be a close call, with policymakers facing multiple reasons to lower borrowing costs as inflation stays low and economic growth takes a knock from high US tariffs. While a majority of economists — 24 of 39 surveyed by Bloomberg — predict the repurchase rate will remain on hold at 5.5%, 15 expect a quarter-point reduction, citing India's growth prospects. Even many of those forecasting a hold say there's justification to ease. The six-member monetary policy committee, led by Governor Sanjay Malhotra, will need to juggle a number of competing objectives this week. Inflation, which is hovering near the lower end of the 2%–6% target band, is expected to ease further after recent tax cuts, while growth is likely to face a hit from US President Donald Trump's 50% export tariffs.

According to data from the market intelligence firm Sensor Tower, shared with BusinessLine, Arattai's downloads and daily active users in India have skyrocketed — increasing by 185 times and 40 times respectively, compared to the previous week. This massive jump happened between September 21st and 27th, right after the app came under the spotlight thanks to mentions by government officials. The instant messaging app from software firm Zoho, that is being touted as a WhatsApp rival, has seen an exponential growth across all parameters such as installs and usage, and app store rankings.

This will translate into a 15 per cent dilution of its stake in its Indian arm, LG Electronics India Ltd, in which it will hold 85 per cent stake post the IPO. Read more here 4.The government has placed e-commerce platforms under scrutiny as it monitors prices of daily use FMCG products ranging from shampoo to pulses to ensure that the benefits of Goods and Services Tax (GST) rate cuts are being appropriately passed on to consumers. Authorities are monitoring whether these platforms are complying with pricing norms and not withholding the intended consumer benefits from tax reductions. Sources said the e-commerce platforms cited ‘technical glitches' when discrepancies in pricing pre- and post-GST reduction were pointed out. Read more here Donald Trump's H-1B visa crackdown will hasten US firms' shift of critical work to India, turbocharging the growth of global capability centres (GCCs) that handle operations from finance to research and development, economists and industry insiders say. The world's fifth-largest economy is home to 1,700 GCCs, or more than half the global tally, having outgrown its tech support origins to become a hub of high-value innovation in areas from design of luxury car dashboards to drug discovery. Trends such as growing adoption of artificial intelligence and increasing curbs on visas are pushing U.S. firms to redraw labour strategies, with GCCs in India emerging as resilient hubs blending global skills with strong domestic leadership.

Now, we need to talk about the Reserve Bank's excuses for how it completely stuffed up its job and let inflation get away on it during Covid. We spoke about this on the show yesterday, it's done the review and it says, quote, - "in hindsight, an earlier and more aggressive tightening might have reduced inflation sooner." Yeah. Really, Sherlock? But this would have been difficult given the data available at the time. Now, basically what they're saying is: yeah, we could have done better if we could see what was happening at the time, but we couldn't see what was happening at the time. Which is a crock, isn't it? Because there were people who could see at the time what was happening, and they said so. They said it publicly, they said the Reserve Bank needs to start tightening up - in some cases, months, if not even more than a year, before they did. I mean, the New Zealand Initiative first identified that Covid could cause inflation in April 2022 - that's a year and a half before the Reserve Bank started tightening. Brad Olsen called on them to start lifting the OCR in July 2021, that's about three months before they started. They started in October 2021. Now, that's good on them for - at that point - starting to move, but they were doing it. They were pumping the brake ever so slightly while still pushing the accelerator in a big way, because they did not stop pumping the economy and they kept their cheap money for banks program going all the while. In February 2022, the following year, the New Zealand Initiative was warning them and saying - hey, listen, this inflation is a thing here. But that lending continued, that cheap money to the banks continued all the way through to December 2022. When it stopped, inflation was already at 7.2 percent, which is nutso. Now, to be fair to the Reserve Bank, it wasn't just their fault. Grant Robertson was doing a fair bit, right? He was spending like crazy, and even though he was warned by Treasury, he just kept on spending too. But that doesn't exonerate the Reserve Bank, it just makes their job harder. But they cannot pretend that they didn't see what was happening, because others did see what was happening, and they needed to see what was happening - because that is what they are paid for.

Money News Host Evan Lucas has reacted to today's RBA announcement of the cash rate being held steady.

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) will likely consider approving Tata Sons' request to de-register as an upper layer non-banking finance company (NBFC), subject to meeting certain conditions, sources say. As the RBI's deadline for upper layer NBFCs to list by September end approaches, the regulator may also extend the timeline for Tata Sons to meet those conditions, writes Piyush Shukla. Tata Sons has been engaging with the regulator on several aspects of its classification as an upper layer NBFC and sources indicated a favourable response, especially its request for de-registration. There was no response from Tata Sons to a clarification request. Jaguar Land Rover to resume production in ‘coming days' British luxury carmaker Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) is taking steps to resume vehicle production, and as the first step will restart some sections of its manufacturing in the coming days following the cyberattack, reports Aroosa Ahmed. “Today we are informing colleagues, retailers and suppliers that some sections of our manufacturing operations will resume in the coming days. We continue to work around the clock alongside cybersecurity specialists, the UK Government's NCSC and law enforcement to ensure our restart is done in a safe and secure manner,” it said in a statement. The company stated that, as part of the controlled phased restart of operations, it is taking further steps towards recovery and returning to manufacturing its vehicles. JLR had shut its vehicle manufacturing up till October 1 after a cyberattack. On Sunday the UK government said it will guarantee a £1.5 billion loan to JLR, which will support its supply chain. The British luxury carmaker had suffered an overall impact on its system and plant operations due to a cyberattack that was discovered on August 30, which led to the closure of its manufacturing plants.

The Reserve Bank's conceded earlier or more aggressive OCR hikes may have reduced inflation sooner. It's been reviewing its response to the recent three-year period of high inflation.

In previous weeks, the Fed's easing expectations appear to have been driving all markets, sending equities higher, credit spreads tighter, and the USD and US yields lower. However, better US data this week have resulted in some rate cut expectations to unwind.

In this episode of The Pure Property Podcast, Phil Tarrant and Paul Glossop explore the shifting landscape of Australian property investment following the Reserve Bank's key interest rate cut to 3.6 per cent. The duo discuss the intricacies of the current market, government schemes and strategies for potential investors, blending global insights with local expertise. Paul, speaking from Ontario, Canada, shares his experiences travelling through Europe and North America, offering a unique perspective on hidden opportunities and challenges in property investment. They examine the Australian First Home Guarantee Scheme, set to expand from 1 October, which allows first-time buyers to purchase homes with just a 5 per cent deposit, but caution that it may increase competition and push up property prices in major markets. Phil stresses the importance of discipline for first home buyers, advising them to start modestly rather than overextending financially in pursuit of their dream home. For investors, the scheme presents both opportunities and challenges, with Paul highlighting areas of potential capital growth and the benefits of rising demand. The discussion also covers banks offering competitive fixed rates, signalling possible shifts in financing options for investors.

Our next Reserve Bank Governor is being commended for her track record in Sweden. Dr Anna Breman —the First Deputy-Governor of Sweden's central bank— will lead our central bank from December. Swedish economist Selva Baziki says the Swedish economy is similar to New Zealand's. And she told Mike Hosking Breman and her colleagues successfully reined in inflation without too much economic impact.

The Reserve Bank Governor appointment is not to be underestimated. We have never had a foreigner. Well, we have (the first was British) but that was in 1934 and that's the sort of thing you would have expected given colonialism. Obviously, the fact she is female should not be a thing. I think we have seen plenty of examples that essentially woman can, and do, do anything and the more we continue to isolate out appointments on gender, the more we remind ourselves how little in our minds we have moved forward. But the fact we seem to have attracted what they suggested was a good line up, both numerically and in talent, from offshore is a good tick for this country's reputation. Anna Breman may well use this as a springboard to big banks, who knows. But moving your family halfway around the world is no small thing and you have to believe that the place you are landing isn't a dump, and you can make a difference. I don't think I'm reading too much into the Willis comments at the press conference when she said Christian Hawkesby had done an admirable job. Admirable... is that glowing? I don't think so. He applied for the job but sadly, given his proximity to Adrian Orr, he didn't stand a chance and is now to leave the bank. That in part may have played a role in someone from outside the joint getting the gig. If you're from Sweden you had nothing to do with what has been a hopeless time for the bank, riddled with incompetence and secrecy. Breman said our bank is widely and highly regarded. If I take her at her word that's reassuring, but you can equally suggest she would say that, wouldn't she? What I am interested in is whether she can get a grip on the country and its economic culture. I remain convinced that at least part of the reason the Reserve Bank have messed the recovery up so badly is they don't get out of Wellington. There are too many spreadsheets and not enough real world, not enough vibe, not enough on-the-ground readings. It's a challenge for a Northern European to soak up something like New Zealand and get a gut feel for it and flip it. How long would it take anyone of us to suss out the subtlety of Sweden? But given where we are, she starts from a low base, and the only way is up. Let's hope she's a rockstar. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Tonight, on The Panel, Wallace Chapman is joined by panellists Verity Johnson and Ed McKnight. First up, a new Reserve Bank governor has been appointed and Dr Anna Breman will be the first women in the role in New Zealand. How significant is this and how important is the appointment for women in economics? Then, Auckland Council is voting on whether to keep going with what's known at Plan Change 78 which allows for three story houses to be put up anywhere, or a revised plan which incorporates 10-15 storey buildings. Simon Wilson brings us the latest from a very contentious debate.
Three hundred potential candidates were identified in the hunt for our new Reserve Bank Governor. The role has gone to Anna Breman, who was the First Deputy Governor of Sweden's central bank. Finance Minister Nicola Willis says it was a a tough competition amongst candidates. "The Reserve Bank went through a process of both advertising and also doing a large international search to consider people that could be qualified for the role."

The Swedes do central banking a little different to us, and I reckon it's good news we've got a Swede in charge. Riksbank - their RBNZ equivalent - is really big on this thing called transparency. There's three things to know - this is stuff they do that we don't, currently. 1. They rank amongst best performing on openness and honesty in the world.2. They publish an actual forward forecast for the OCR - we don't.3. They publish alternative scenarios and minutes. In the minutes, you get to see which of these guys voted which way and their justifications for dong so. Currently, we don't even get to know which way the committee members voted, let alone why. And remember, the Fed in the US and the Bank of England do - as does Riksbank. So here's hoping the Swede in charge will help shake things up and that changes will be made and sunlight will be shone. A new dawn, perhaps, for 2 The Terrace, after a dark and cloudy rollercoaster ride of terror under Adrian Orr. Her name is Anna Breman and her CV reads as you'd expect - current 2IC of Riksbank in her home country. And she's held academic jobs and been the Chief Economist at a retail bank. She's moving here with the family. Which is nice - but I don't know how NZ First will feel about us importing another migrant for a Kiwi job. The reality is, most of the heavy lifting will - hopefully - have been done by the time she sits down for her first briefing on December 1st. We've got two more reviews under Hawkesby in October and November. Then he's gone. Not just from the top job, but the bank entirely. And then they shut up shop for Christmas till February. Let's hope as she enjoys what I'm sure will be a welcome sunny Kiwi summer, she brings a bit of that sunshine - the best disinfectant in town - to 2, The Terrace.

The new Reserve Bank Governor is pledging to build trust and credibility. Sweden's Anna Breman has been announced to lead the central bank, taking over from interim Governor Christian Hawkesby in December. She'll be the first woman to ever hold the role - selected from more than 300 candidates who were initially identified. Newstalk ZB reporter Azaria Howell says Breman has revealed the new core ideals of the RBNZ under her leadership - and has voiced her commitment to transparency.

The new Reserve Bank governor will be announced by Finance Minister Nicola Willis tomorrow.
Speculation is building on who'll be the next Governor of the Reserve Bank, and the Government is due to make an announcement tomorrow. A source has told Bloomberg the new Governor is a woman - and is from overseas. Speculation has centred on the Bank of England's Sarah Breerdon. Newstalk ZB reporter Azaria Howell speculates ahead of the big announcement. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Locally, he looks at how South African real rates remain high after the Reserve Bank left rates unchanged. Investec Focus Radio SA
Economic difficulties across the ditch appear to echo the struggles felt in many New Zealand households. The Reserve Bank of Australia has delivered a brutal reality check to the nation on the cost of living, as it expects the situation to worsen. It warns prices will never return to pre-pandemic levels. Infometrics Principal Economist Brad Olsen told Mike Hosking it's the same story here. He says it would be a sign of very tough economic times if businesses were cutting their prices so drastically. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
