Rba Interest Rate Cuts 2025 Forecast. The national australia bank initially predicted a february 2025 rate cut but has revised its forecast to may 2025, with five 0.25% cuts, aiming for a cash rate of 3.10% by mid. “specifically, we expect the rba to commence a modest easing cycle in february 2025 if our forecast for the q4 24 trimmed mean of 0.5 per cent quarter growth comes to fruition.”
The reserve bank of australia (rba) sets the cash rate at regular intervals throughout the year, and banks and lenders pay close attention, raising or lowering their own. Financial markets have fully priced in dual interest rate cuts at the reserve bank of australia’s (rba) board meetings in april and may after the central bank adopted a more dovish tone in.
