Seven more rate rises coming soon

16/10/2009

The Reserve Bank will not be timid in raising interest rates said the governor of the RBA Glenn Stevens yesterday. Mr Stevens said interest rates had to be adjusted towards more normal levels as economic conditions improved.

In the wake of Mr Stevens comments, financial markets priced in seven consecutive rate rise to take the official cash rate to 5.0 per cent by July 2010. Those rate hikes would add $355/month to the average $275,000 mortgage.
