Further comments
Variable rate mortgages are a key difference of the Australian system.
No evidence monetary policy overall is more potent in Australia than elsewhere.
Arrears rates here remain low, similar to economies with much more fixed-rate lending.
Most borrowers have buffers to help manage higher interest rates.
Worth reviewing the RBA’s approach to forward guidance from time to time.
Including considering other ways the RBA might clarify the nature of its reaction function.
