NZIER: Majority view an RBNZ OCR increase of 25 bps, given inflation pressures are still high

“Shadow Board members recommend a smaller hike in the Official Cash Rate (OCR) in the Reserve Bank’s upcoming April Monetary Policy Review,” said the latest New Zealand Institute of Economic Research (NZIER) report.

“The majority view was an OCR increase of 25 basis points, given inflation pressures are still high in the economy and inflation expectations remain above the Reserve Bank’s 1–3 percent inflation target band,” also mentions the NZIER report.

Key comments

However, two Shadow Board members recommended the Reserve Bank keep the OCR unchanged at 4.75 percent.

One of these members considered the OCR should have already peaked, while the other highlighted the increased risk of a recession looming.

Regarding where the OCR should be in a year, the Shadow Board’s core view ranged from 4.25 percent to 5.50 percent. 

Some members recommend the Reserve Bank pause with OCR increases after April but keep it elevated for some time to bring inflation down.

There was one Shadow Board member in the business community who viewed the OCR should be lower in a year, given business profitability and finances are already hard hit by the interest rate increases to date. 

NZD/USD drops

The news weighs on the NZD/USD prices, together with the sour sentiment, as the Kiwi pair drops to 0.6235, down 0.35% intraday at the latest by the press time.

Upozorenje o rizicima

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
