The RBA Under The Microscope

In today’s show we look at the just released annual report from the RBA, with a surprising change in accounting to avoid a capital call, plus calls for a review of the RBA, and we touch on the question of whether rising rates will drive home prices lower. And we hear about the RBA’s view of the relationship between Government and the RBA.

The latest edition of our finance and property news digest with a distinctively Australian flavour.

In today’s show we discuss the latest home prices data from the ABS, the RBA’s view on future interest rates and why we need a though policy review, what’s happening with Evergrande (which some are suggesting is a Lehman’s 2.0 – but I have my doubts), and more broadly the economic fallout of Delta.
