RBNZ preview: A closer call than markets expect
The desk views the upcoming Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) policy decision as more contentious than current market pricing suggests. Per the full note from ING Economics, the RBNZ's monetary policy deliberations could hinge on recent inflation data and the broader economic outlook, potentially challenging expectations for a steady approach. With the RBNZ's OCR currently at 5.50%, the risk of a hawkish surprise looms should inflationary pressures remain persistent, as highlighted by a recent CPI reading showing 6.1% year-on-year growth. The absence of scheduled economic events complicates the current landscape, leaving traders to navigate evolving macroeconomic indicators in lieu of formal guidance.
