Australia’s stronger economic growth than expected can disrupt hopes for more interest rates.

Australian Reserve Bank Governor Michele Bullock insisted that the rise in economic growth on Wednesday did not know what it might mean for interest rates.

“But if it continues, it means it is possible that there will be no more interest drops for the next,” he said.

Ms. Bullock handed over the 60th Shann Memorial conference at Western Australian University of Australia on Wednesday when it was asked to reduce interest rates.

“There is always one,” he said because the room full of experienced and enthusiastic economists laughed heartily.

His speech focused on technological change, including the increasing use of text analysis models, which provides “third lens önemli to monitor the changing business conditions of the bank.

“But at the same time we take our own decision on these things.

“I personally do not see a world where we place all our faith in a model,” he said.

However, this is still below the historical average of Australia, limiting the country’s maximum growth potential.

“The key to this problem is really, how to remove the speed limit in our economy, D said Dr Chalmers.

“We make it more productive by making it more productive, we can make faster growth with low inflation, and this is really one of the motivating forces behind all the works we do this term.”

In August, the RBA reduced the assumption of medium -term productivity to 0.7 percent, which led Australia to reduce its assumption on GDP growth potential to two percent a year.

Felsman said that inflation will fight for two to three percent of the RBA in time without an increase in productivity increase.

“In our opinion, in order to provide a sustainable recovery in productivity metrics, more business investment and slower unit labor costs should grow,” he said.
