The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) announced that, by a vote of 8-1, it raised the policy rate by 25 bps to 4.35%, in line with market expectations, marking the third consecutive rate hike. After assessment, the RBA concluded that inflation may remain above the target level for some time, with risks to inflation expectations still skewed to the upside.

The central bank stated that inflation rebounded significantly in the second half of last year, and data since the beginning of this year have confirmed this trend. In addition, the Middle East conflict has led to sharp increases in fuel and related commodity prices, which will further intensify inflationary pressures. There are preliminary signs that many businesses facing cost pressures are seeking to raise prices of products and services.

The RBA added that as the Middle East conflict continues, under certain possible scenarios inflation could exceed baseline forecasts, while economic activity may fall below projections. A prolonged or more severe conflict could place additional upward pressure on global energy prices. Therefore, the central bank will closely monitor data and continuously assess the evolving outlook and risks to guide monetary policy. It believes that after three rate hikes, monetary policy is well positioned to respond to developments, and it will take necessary actions to maintain price stability and full employment.

Following the rate decision announcement, the Australian dollar steadied against the US dollar at 0.7165. (mn/u)~
