RBA makes its move – will the RBNZ follow?

Financial Adviser, Director from adviceHQ

The Reserve Bank of Australia has cut its cash rate by 0.25% to 3.6%. The RBNZ followed the RBA last round, and with economic momentum flatlining and unemployment above 5%, there’s a strong chance they could do the same.

NZ retail banks are already ahead of the curve, trimming fixed mortgage rates. The 2-year swap rate has also dropped 10bps in the past week, signalling the market’s expectations.


If you’re coming up for a refix or considering restructuring your mortgage, now’s the time to review your options.

Are you for, or against?
