Central bank independence is still alive
The RBA kept rates on hold at yesterday's meeting, and signalled little interest in raising rates any further.
The RBA is, and continues to remain an independent central bank, committed to openness, transparency, and accountability. Despite this, perceptions in the Australian market continue to challenge the credibility of its independence.
In episode 48 of the Rate Debate, I am joined by Investment Manager Jessica Ren to discuss the latest rate decision, share our opinions on why monetary policy shouldn't be run in isolation but hand in hand with fiscal and regulatory policy and unpack why the fight against inflation will be a slow and bumpy ride.
