AUD/NZD on the bottom end near 1.0670 ahead of RBNZ

Share:
  • The AUD/NZD is on the low end heading into Wednesday's Asia market session.
  • The RBNZ is inbound with their latest rate call.
  • The RBA continues to hold steady on rates.

The AUD/NZD is down into 1.0670 after the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) held rates steady for the fourth consecutive meeting; the RBA has been pushed into a holding pattern on interest rates as the Australian economy wobbles on unsteady growth figures and exposure to a possible downturn in broader Asian markets.

The Reserve Bank of New Zealand is due on Wednesday and is also expected to maintain steady policy rates, but the RBNZ has achieved a notably more hawkish tone than their RBA counterparts as of late. The New Zealand Cash Rate is seen standing pat at 5.5%.
